I'm an HN person before I'm a Fly.io person, and as an HN person I find the points you're trying to make --- anybody can see them throughout the thread simply by searching your name --- tedious.

As a businessperson, I don't think I have much to gain by genuflecting to the importance of reliability; everybody I care about on this site shares an understanding with us that reliability is important, though apparently not with you that all these systems are fallible. So I'm making the decision not to genuflect, and instead call you out --- you in particular, anonymous, venomous, green-named commenter --- as a a writer of boring and facile attempted dunks.

Are we not allowed to expect reliable uptimes from a cloud provider? What part of "fly.io has a documented history of prolonged downtimes and data redundancy issues" do you disagree with? Are you calling everybody liars who have had bad experience with fly.io, frankly, business and reputation loss that came as a result of trusting fly.io ?

Nobody has called anybody a liar. I'm very comfortable with what i've said thus far on this thread, so maybe we're fine leaving it here.

is that why you are going through all my comments and flagging and downvoting? you know this just makes you look even worse right?

That's not how flags work on HN: I can't flag your responses to me. For a variety of reasons, and for better or worse, I'm very comfortable with how I come across on HN.

To twist the knife just a little bit, I'll refer you though to the guidelines:

Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.
