Considering the price of Nexus and Artifactory this is way cheaper for a SAAS offering with SLA's. I imagine Artifactory is really going to have to up their product offering or at least lower their entry prices.

Github already released their package repo last year (and have since purchased NPM). If anything I imagine that had Artifactory pretty scared vs. this. If your company already uses GitHub it's a hard sell to say why you'd need something like Artifactory over the Github package repo.

And since I've been trying GitHub Actions, I don't know why you would need artifactory, nexus or this aws service anymore. Github offers private repositories, releases, project pages, cicd through actions and Microsoft is offering plenty of deployment options on Azure with AKS or plain Azure Compute

Meta: I’ve vouched for your killed comment. I suspect you may be shadowbanned.

Thanks for letting me know, I will reach out to the HN email and ask them why. I suspect it is because of some comments where I got -Karma.

Looks like a kind mod un-shadowbanned you. Welcome to the land of the living!

despite appearances i'm a very casual HN reader and all this talk of shadowbanning makes me kinda nervous tbh. hope i havent done anything to displease the powers that be.

You are fine. New people with low karma are most at risk. Once you are a little established, you have to do something very upsetting to get shadowbanned, or be consistently unpleasant. Once established, a few controversial posts with negative karma should not be a problem.

Avoid criticizing HN staff or related companies. Gentle / kind disagreement is fine, but err on the side of keeping it private.
