The main anti-vandalism bot ClueBot was created in 2007, and its successor ClueBot NG in 2010. They certainly have false positives from time to time, but that doesn't mean they aren't the most useful bots on the website.
Of course most areas don't have it, but take a look at the Dakotas. I won't say it's better than NYC, but it may be as good in quite a large number of counties where the population density is ~1/km²=~2/mi². Most of the ISPs in those areas are coops like BEK, Consolidated Telcom, Golden West, etc. that have been making good use of state and federal grants. Gigabit internet is generally $100/month from them (in NYC it's $90/month if I understand correctly).
Would be interesting to compare this to areas of Europe with a similar population density, e.g. Lapland or... well, maybe Lapland is the only one
I see https://sneller.ai/blog/avx512-itoa/, which reports ~0.75ns/number for <=7 bytes (compared to ~1ns/n for Champagne-Lemire, I would assume on 3 year newer hardware), but ~2.6ns/number for >=8 bytes (vs ~1.3ns/n for Champagne-Lemire). Perhaps it has improved in the 3 years since the blog post was written? Their main GitHub repository is no longer public, so I don't see a good way to test it myself.
Hetzner has dedicated resources too, but they also have 2 levels of shared resources, "Cost-Optimized" and "Regular Performance". The 3900 IOPS CX23 above is "Cost-Optimized".
Here are some "Regular Performance" shared resource stats

Anecdotally, I've been managing a Syncthing network with a file count in the ~200k range, everything synced bidirectionally across a few dozen (Windows) computers, for 9 years now; I've never seen data loss where Syncthing was at fault.
Good to know. I wonder what the difference is. We were doing things like running go build inside the source directory. Maybe it can't handle write races well on Linux/MacOS?

Try checking bzexcluderules_editable.xml. A few years ago, Backblaze would back up .git folders for Mac but not Windows. Not sure if this is still the case.
