Revolt is kinda “centralized”. You can host your own version, but they seem to actively discourage you from doing so.

Forced memes don't work either. Just ask Milhouse

https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/blame/dev/LICENSE <-- that's ... a rather specific and recent change. Is there a story here ?

You are aware that draw.io is itself open source and self-hostable: https://github.com/jgraph/drawio ?

Biden did get some new appointees on the board: https://federalnewsnetwork.com/people/2022/05/usps-board-is-now-mostly-biden-picks-following-latest-senate-confirmations/ but i'm not sure what the hold up is now.

Price fixing is a problem because of the power imbalance between businesses selling products, and individual consumers that need to buy them.

Worker unions are a solution to that power imbalance.

They also made RIPTerm and RIPscript iirc. Those were the days…….

At $dayjob I switched from Apache to nginx 15+ years ago. It's Callback/Event based process model ran circles around Apache's pre-fork model at the time. It was very carefully developed to be secure, and even early on it had a good track record. Being able to have nginx handle static content without tying up a backend worker process was huge, and let us scale our app pretty well for the investment of time. Since then, Apache implemented threaded + Event based process models, Caddy, traefik, and a bunch of others have entered the scene.

TBH, I think the big thing nowadays is sane defaults, and better configuration, even automatically discovered configuration -- traefik is my current favorite for discovering hosts in consul/Kubernetes/simple host definition files, but since traefik can't directly serve files, I simply proxy from traefik to .... nginx :)

Navidrome is another server that works pretty well, implements the subsonic protocol ( so all the apps that can cache and stream to your mobile device work). You can have multiple logins, or just share out playlists and albums individually to non-authenticated users.

MoCA is a way to send wired Ethernet up to (300mb/s, at least the version i have) over coax. Verizon fios would provide these devices to send internet to set top boxes over existing coax cabling, but you can get a pair of these devices and send Ethernet in on one side, and Ethernet out the other side.

I have noticed however, it adds a bit of latency to the connection, which may be trouble.

Depending on your use cases and apps, file locking can be problematic when sharing across SMB and NFS simultaneously, their locking semantics are slightly different
