I've used plenty of ergo keyboards and fancy layouts, but as soon as I try to use a regular keyboard I have to re-learn how to type and it really halts any productivity.
This sort of thing may be nice if you only ever use one computer or you're willing to pack around your keyboard.
Even still, I never liked ergo boards enough to think it's worth the effort, especially considering being useless on other keyboards once I'm used to ergo.
Now I just stick to a 75% or TKL. Keeps me versatile.
I recently saw a self-hosted imgix/cloudinary alternative. I thought I starred it on gh, but apparently not and I can't remember the name.
Edit
I think this was it:

But also, on a second read of your post, I now realize what you are looking for is right here:

It's open source and it's entirely client-side. It allows you to customize the settings to compress your image to the file size and format you need and maintain as much as the quality as possible. I can't think of a simpler solution that works across all your devices.
Is there a video version of this article?
Ironically, bullets already have jackets. So using the clothing item is kinda redundant. (Yes, that's probably the joke)
I believe the ring does have the ability to exert its magic on its surroundings. It can also change its size. So if you took this scenario seriously, I think it could break the zip tie.
So Kirk holding those Cheetos to his cheek before putting them in his mouth?
To add to that, to effectively use docker and basically anything important for self-hosting is to learn the basics of Linux.
A good resource for that is https://learnlinux.tv/
What registrar was that? Were they as big as Cloudflare? How exactly did they "go tits up"? Isn't the situation you describe a completely different scope from an individual's usecase? It's also an anecdotal point of data without including the full context of how common that situation is. "It happened to me once, and I have heard stories" does not necessarily mean it's common enough for everyone to prepare for every time. I'll remain skeptical of the
Mainly, though, I'm not saying it's a bad idea in total. I just think that for someone who is inexperienced with DNS management and self-hosting, those types of concerns are already unlikely and just keeping the environment simple and cost less has far more value than being prepared for unlikely scenarios. It could even prevent self-inflicted issues by keeping it simple, which would be far more likely than Cloudflare's infrastructure creating a problem that they have to remediate themselves.
If anything, the true argument for risk mitigation would be to have multiple DNS servers for redundancy.
I just don't believe that, in this type of usecase, it's worth pressing for and that there's more of an argument to keep it simple.
Additionally, you can leave out trying to use your credentials and a hypothetical group of people to make your argument for you. It makes it seem like you're trying to talk down.
I get that you're likely exaggerating by saying "it's no extra work", but managing another account is markedly extra work. It will also cost extra because Cloudflare does not add any markup for registration, which is why they are the cheapest registrar.
I think the convenience and reduction of cost greatly outweighs the highly unlikely situation where "something goes fucky". If it does, then what? You can't make DNS updates for a little while?
The most likely reason to get locked out is billing issues, or maybe you lost your login information or something like that, which is going to be the same risk regardless of who your registrar is. Otherwise you'd have to be involved in some sort of legal issue associated with your domain and that is a much deeper issue than can be solved by simply changing nameservers.
Can you explain what's wrong with it?
