File over app
Steph Ango in File over app:
File over app is a philosophy: if you want to create digital artifacts that last, they must be files you can control, in formats that are easy to retrieve and read. Use tools that give you this freedom.
This philosophy is what I hinted at in footnote 9 in my recent post about my current tech stack.
Storing data in open and accessible file formats is the way to go. It minimises lock-in and gives you great portability and freedom of choice.
