Lol yeah, okay. Talk to me when you can actually get to most sites with IPv6.
Yeah as others have hinted at this is going to be easier with a router/network level feature.
I’m sure there’s a way to do this by setting up a special virtual interface, limiting the bandwidth on that interface and then using iptables to redirect the apt traffic to that interface or something to that effect but I’m not a network engineer and I don’t have the experience to help with something like that. There might also be a way to do this with cgroups to limit the bandwidth but again that’s above my level of expertise.

Git = bittorrent
GitHub = the pirate bay
Code = content
Even that’s not the perfect analogy but it’s better than the OP.

This comment shows a distinct lack of knowledge of how the US government works or is disingenuous.
As an American I couldn’t agree more. Since our government won’t and can’t (because courts keep siding with corporations) pursue any antitrust action or legislation; I beg other countries throughout the world to come up with alternatives and force competition into these market spaces.
I would love it if there were a social media platform that didn’t reside in the US, and possibly Europe so they have to follow GDPR regulations and the like.
At the same time it doesn’t seem likely because why build a platform that has to follow the regulations and cost more money when you can just build it in America instead? Sigh
The whole problem with this playbook and why it won’t happen is because if they succeed in doing this, they will have eroded any protections they can use to stymie a Democratic president and thus allow a D president to completely undo and then swing it all back the other way.
This is even if they can overcome the ridiculous legal challenges associated with this plan. They literally just ruled against Biden having the power to control the executive branch when it comes to loan forgiveness, federal vaccine mandates, control at the border, oil drilling, hell even cruise ships. Someone they’re going to overturn all these precedents which will essentially give the executive branch unlimited power?
SCOTUS is definitely going to strike down anything that gives the executive branch more power and the risk of taking power away from the courts.
If you want open source adoption to continue to be low, please, keep making comments like this.
If you want people to switch, the apps need to be appealing not a chore. And relearning a workflow you’ve fine tuned over decades is a serious chore and may even be detrimental to your job.
