that's just what they want you to think

like a hole in your head...

Personally, I'd go with hugo as it is fast at generating but I've used nikola for years as it is python based (my prefered language). I'd recommend checking out https://www.staticgen.com/ as it tracks SSG's popularity and gives nice info. A SSG built on a language/platform you are comfortable with is always a plus as sometimes you just need to get under the hood and ti.ker with things.

if you have ever tried k8s on AWS you will know why its not often used, but why would AWS want something a customer could pick up and move to Azure, DO, or any other k8s implementor. Their interests are better served by fargate.

Its all about your perspective. If I bought 100k worth of $50 stock and it went to $5000 per share and this company decided to come clean and admit their devious (but not evil) plan and the stock went to $25/share I'd consider that evil...not the $5000/share value they made off of selling 'ads'.

https://zoneminder.com/ is likely the market leader for open source security software. You might also want to check out https://www.home-assistant.io/ as it lets you automate things off of events (e.g. if doorbell pressed start recording on door cam).

Not sure I'd classify R as 'wildly popular'...

Your main issue will be IO unless you use a host only PV and if you do that you are likely limiting you db instamce to a specific node which can have scaling and/or HA impacts. Most will go with a network based FS to back your db data, if that is the case your network IO will likely impact your db performance. For a dev or test env this might not be a problem but for prod it is usually a blocker.

I would recommend docker based graylog over local install for security and simplicity. I've been using https://github.com/joschi/docker-graylog-alpine for 2+ years in prod. Docker based setup also provides an easy mechanism to run the same setup in prod as well as test/ local to test upgrades or simply to have a local graylog for local dev of an app.

We have had it already, several times over but people dont care. Once it is something big enough (like I now own your house or bank account) people will care, although big bank and government will protect us surely...

it's not clear to me but where is /e/ based? is it American or Chinese (or even Russia) based? how would that be different from Google, honest question, why should I trust it?

I cant speak for where /e/ is based but the correct answer to why you should trust them is "you shouldn't", regardless of who the company is or their intent for as we know intent can and likely will change down the road.
