forcing many users to consider the unthinkable "Do I really need 300 subscriptions?"

How would you know?

"Change comes from within"
"Look inside yourself"
"A full cavity search is not free"

Look on the bright side, it's only 3,5 days of downtime a year.

Well, normally I'd agree but in this case I'd guess that more people have watched the video than read the blog. That's the order in which I stumbled on it too.

Edit: Also:

I'm working more with older SBCs and microcontrollers now, and I think that's the direction many in the hobbyist space are going.

In the embedded video he talks about it from 4:40-5, then talks about microcontrollers and mentions used hardware (though says it's also affected by price hike).

Switched to self-hosted Forgejo already so now I'm just waiting for my dependencies to switch.

10 minutes ago my forgejo test failed because github returned a 502 for the home-manager repo •-•

For even more context: That means that 89% of the time all parts that make up github work without issue. 11% of the time at least one component has issues/downtime.

https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/ shows the breakdown, git push/pull operations for example have 98.98% uptime.

The thing that these complaints about RPi pricing complaints always seems to miss is that that was talked about in the blog.

Don't know yet but it seems to just be running on fumes.
