restructure Nightscout is free discussion #149

Closed bewest closed 2 years ago

bewest commented 2 years ago

Again try to clarify and deescalate language used. This change makes explicit what is free and the ways in which it may not represent the free experience implied otherwise.

Nightscout developers cannot control the price of third party servers. We can't make this claim and have never supported it. We are now being held responsible for making it true even though it's not feasible.

This lays out examples for how to discuss "what is free" without accusing participants of harming the ecosystem, and without confusing people expecting a year of free mission-critical application support for Loop. This offers a useful starting place to add fly.io and railway, as discusssed in https://github.com/nightscout/nightscout.github.io/issues/147

Ok, they are removed from the front page with a bit more nuanced discussion, and updated with the latest information I could find. Also, all the vendors with some form of a stub page are linked. I think this will help people see where they can make a difference and participate.
