It's hard to take something seriously when it's very clearly AI generated. It's just a coin toss on whether the information in the article is correct.

Yeah. I know what DMARC does, I run a mail server, but I thought it might be an interesting blog post nonetheless. It was very very obviously generated text, and not particularly information-dense or insightful. Gave up on reading it halfway through.

I’ve been building an uptime monitor service for a while now, something that is genuinely reliable and only alerts you when something is actually going on. Also comes with very pretty status pages!

Free tier is enough for most users, paid tier just exists to gate the stuff that is expensive to run like SMS alerts.

Check it out at [Larm](https://larm.dev) and try out the [response time checker too](https://larm.dev/tools/response-time) to try out the Larm probe infrastructure.

https://larm.dev, an uptime monitoring service with a focus on reliability and reduction in false positives. I’ve been building it for myself really but I figure it’s worth sharing it with people in case someone else finds it useful too.

It’s also a lot of fun to work on. Phoenix LiveView dashboard, go probes running on 4 continents, connected to the backend using websocket tunnels. Clickhouse for reporting. Even did a CLI and an MCP for fun.

You can take the probes for a spin with the free response time checking tool and see how fast your site is https://larm.dev/tools/response-time

Very neat! Took me about two minutes from registering to having set up the sites I want to monitor.

It's not, but I can see how it came across like that. I just wrote up my experience moving over, and I thought it was nice they had an affiliate link. I've cleaned it up and called out the affiliate link. Nothing shady intended.

Sorry, I realize I overdid it on the affiliate links so I've called out the link and removed some others. Just thought it was nice that they had an affiliate program. Nothing shady intended!

Thanks, just something to be mindful of in the future. It unfortunately can discredit your work if not clearly disclosed. Thanks for the post!

> It unfortunately can discredit your work

In a time where more people usually beg for forgiveness instead of asking for permission, it already has

You probably could have just dropped a line at the end saying that all of the links in the post so readers are advised 2 plz click so you can get credit.

Thanks for the update. The usage of an affiliate link feels quite dishonest here because the hyperlink says bunny.net but then opens up bunny.net/?ref=xxxx
