| Clearly you have not experienced the absolute joy of a
| mission-critical locked-in-vendor B2B SaaS with no status
| page, no active Twitter presence, and the effective status
| page being a chat widget that routes to a person overseas
| who says "oh yeah this is a known outage on our main
| product please stay tuned" but there's no attempt to
| proactively make it visible to clients that they know there
| is an outage.
|
| EDIT: fun fact, said vendor lets us use a subdomain we own,
| so we just route them through a Cloudflare Worker that
| injects Sentry into their HTML, so that we can monitor
| errors ourselves and raise tickets with them pretending
| that we know less than we actually know, because somehow we
| have a better observability culture than a SaaS vendor
| that's been around for 20 years. Don't underestimate the
| difference between vendor.mybrand.com and
| mybrand.vendor.com on a feature matrix, it may save your
| sanity.
