which open source s3 tool are you using for image hosting?

Cool. So I could bet a hundred million on a candidate, my predictions will show up in cbs reporting (acting like a campaign since it influenced the report), then I spend 50 million on ads supporting my candidate…

Profit.

It wasn’t really oop that was the problem although it may have provided the plain for the pain as I also didn’t like Java much. However, I did appreciate oop in PHP when I went back to it to build a couple sites about 7 or 8 years after bailing from that language.

It’s been over 7 years since I finally jumped off that train (pun intended), so it’s going to be difficult to boil down nit pics about it but a few things stand out.

Yes it is very opinionated and it seems to want to constrain the programmer to its data entry style of development rather than let the programmer build with code.

I don’t think it’s just because it’s a framework because I’ve been in other frameworks (outside of Ruby), and it still felt like I was actually coding compared to ror.

The culture felt like I am finding a gem for everything instead of actually implementing it myself.

Like I said earlier, it felt like data entry. But could just be me.

Which s3 tools are you using for s3 image hosting for your for profit web sites.

I plan on using podman containers hosting either:

GarageHQ SeaweedFS RustFS Silo ceph None / Directory

Seaweed and RustFS are both Apache related licensing while garageHQ and silo are both agpl-3. Ceph is lgpl-2.1

I was leaning towards garage but since my website will not be open source I think there may be a problem with that so looking into other options.

Unfortunately rustfs is known for ai slop so even though I was leaning that way I might just remove it from my options.

Seaweed is known for being efficient for millions of small files but I don’t know what that means for images.

Ceph may be too much of a time investment for me but looks interesting.

Silo is the fork of minio and appears to have the same licensing issue. I also don’t find much feedback about it but it is still pretty new.

There’s the option of old fashion directory image hosting. Would love to utilize my dream of a Slackware image host server (something I always wanted to do but never did) but wonder if that is outdated for a professional website.

I learned Rails to improve my object orientation back in the day. That was the worst mistake I did to my programming career. It basically killed my career. I can only blame myself for not jumping off that train earlier but that framework made me a dumber programmer.

I was excelling and loving the craft until I went head to head with that slop.

Maybe I should make a post about it because you guys are going to get sick of me bitching about it every time his name comes up. But it does make sense why he’s head over heals for ai.

Edit: I keep using “since” instead of “sense”… Edit to correct word.

That was more of a royal “you” because I think we’ve all been guilty of it by now.

I don’t know who wrote the rules but I don’t think we should not be calling people vibe coders just because they reviewed it. That’s resetting us under a dystopian playbook.

Vibe coding is fart coding whether you checked it or not. You still cheated and you didn’t use your own cognitive utilities…
