Adding a caching layer to your app is like giving your app performance-enhancing drugs. It'll run like the horse 🐴 ... until the unexpected side effects kick in, and you realize you've created a little monster. At first, it's pure magic...then your users become your QA team by accident. Always be aware of edge cases and unexpected trade-offs.

    Like @bert_hubert I removed X from my phone. Had my account already in hibernation mode. With @nluug also leaving the platform, no more need to use the app 👋

    Agree. That is why I announced it clearly on my X timeline a while back as well. If people value a person's messages/knowledge, then they might be persuaded to make the jump or at least try it out. I see in my bubble (not just Linux or security, but also sustainability) that people are coming over. Hopefully that continues, include leaving X.

    @pootriarch
    But is it sending actual data or does it want to get some resources? After all, this is related to profiler itself, so it may need to pull in some developer scripts (e.g. on first use, or the latest).

    Trust, but verify 😉
