10 years ago it was at very slow pace of development (don't know how it is now). but the blocker for me back then was the need for SSH access (which greatly limited choice of suitable shared hosting providers) to run composer for installation and upgrades. while with phpBB you could just upload it via FTP, open installation url and you are done.

you know wrong

GitHub offers doesn't pay for motivation to do the upkeep.

uhm, I assumed the ease or start and use were the the selling points

why would you get Perl mixed into this rant? great programming lang

Perl + Mojo::DOM, or Perl + Playwright or Selenium when JavaScript is required

and Perl for that matter

how many of those "letters" are postcards? thing is postcards are not cool anymore (sad), and I think postcards share of the whole volume is pretty small.

> mypostcard in 2016 claimed that they print 10000 postcards per day

I wanna call bs of this claim. Postcrossing -- largest postcard exchange community, almost 800k registered users worldwide, not all active of course, but a large portion of them sending daily and are really hooked on the hobby.. The hottest month in 2016 was March, 17k/day. These are people who love sending cards. Just hard to believe another single service not oriented on hardcore regular senders would be doing even half that. I can be wrong, of course, but just hard to believe.

Very brave for you to offer 5 free cards (or any for that matter) -- when postcrossers find out you may run out of money quickly :) postcard exchange if a fairly popular hobby.

I imagined a project about towed car, and the didnt have an illustration for that :)

Because its not in their economic interests.

Lack of comments and illegal trailing commas is an artificial problem. Implement/use non-strict mode to allow those and both of the issues for readability are gone. Perl JSON modules have this mode, making json files for simple config just fine. If you already using JSON in your program, theres no need to add more dependencies for other config file format.

"internal" = international ( i think it was uk homepage)

Yep, another one for Picasa. I still use it, was able to grab the installer from one of Google's internal home pages,, when they took it down on .com

Love it for quick and easy edit controls. Like the speed and looks. Wish some remaining bugs were fixed.
