I can't read more about the 'passion' arguments. People who are making that 'argument' should read the book 'So good they can't ignore' before.

No way we move to a worse CDN only because some don't like Trump.

Regardless of that, I’m always happy to see people try and free themselves from the increasingly centralized nature of the web.

I might not be brave enough to stop using CF, but people who do benefit everyone.

What makes it worse? In my experience it is a better CDN than Cloudflare (other than that it cost money and CF can be free and that is lacks websocket support). WAF seems a bit better at CF (but not sure the app should rely on a cloud WAF for security).

It's not about not liking Trump. The fear is that the trade war against Europe might make it so expensive everyone has to switch to a non-American service. This is a way to be prepared for that. There is also the fear if USA goes to an actual war against Europe, then it is not safe to use any american technology that phones home.

If Trump steps back from the GDPR US-EU data transfer agreement then your political stance is irrelevant.

Well, it's harder, but I don't think it's too hard. You have to keep your motivation high.

Motivation is not the limiting factor. Not knowing what you don’t know is.

Of course, it's nice to have some seniors, where you can look over their shoulders. Usually, you don't have this ideal situation. Most of the time, I didn't have it, too.

You can use a lot of modern Internet resources.

I got a Learning O'Reilly Account. There you can find courses, videos and live events where you can ask questions. It's helpful.

Read a lot of good books/e-books, ask in forums and maybe in your town is a user group for that.

Just write the software and constantly look to improve. Your code from 2 years ago is in an ideal situation, much worse than your code now.
