If you look at the email screenshot it’s from sdf.org. They’re pretty awesome and I’m guessing it’s just some sort of oversight. OP should just send them an email and I’m sure they’d resolve it.

Eh, the big reason is that if the changes are by a non-maintainer they will get caught in the PR if it’s malicious. If not, then it’s up to auditing. I do tend to audit smaller software that I use, nothing like firefox, but I read through a ton of stuff before running it.

Set up Prowlarr or Jackett and you can have the torrents from all major indexers without having to use their spooky sites.

There’s programs to download music at 320kbps if you get premium. Try it for a month and download everything you want maybe? That’s something along the lines of what I’ve been planning on doing, although my library is already quite large.

Only if your vpn supports port forwarding. Only a few do, so you’d need something like (I think PIA still works, but it’s kinds hacky) AirVPN, or IVPN. You could also go the easier route of just using a reverse proxy that you host or cloudflare proxy, running your own vpn/ssh tunnel or using something like ngrok tunneling or cloudflared (cloudflare tunnels).

Yeah, those two squares tend to have a pretty smooth gradient between the two. People who are progressive FOSS enthusiasts tend to like some of the “more traditional” stuff in reality too.

Most subs have already extended it indefinitely “until things change”

Reddit is protesting too by blacking out the whole site lol

LOL I didn’t realize. Thanks for pointing it out.

Lemmy has everything I need now :p ⚡️💀

Yes, you’re in the wrong section. You are looking at dedicated servers, and they are talking about VPS’. You can find them at https://www.hetzner.com/cloud, /u/Mallias was speaking about the CPX31 (under “Shared vCPU (x86)”)

Not exactly. The always free tier just cuts you off if you try to go over your limits. It won’t let you allocate stuff that it doesn’t allow. I don’t really understand how they can offer so much for free, but my consensus has mostly been “It’s arm, and they probably spy a bit”. Which some people are alright with, some people aren’t. You can technically strip the OCI Agent from your VPS if you care about that second bit.

I honestly think most people would go back just out of habit. Even if they don’t go back, once things calm down. I’d absolutely love people to move to fedi, but I just don’t think it’s gonna happen.

I hate element so much on mobile (and desktop, but not as much). I’ve been planning on making my own Matrix client for a while.

Just if you wanted more than one. Just like u/kadu said about email. It’s like if you had your email on Google, Yahoo, and Hotmail. I know a lot of people have an alt on platforms like Discord too.

It’s mainly a thing of controlling your own stuff if you’re speaking of self hosted servers. If you mean just smaller instances in general, it’s normally because you prefer their management/moderation. You can still view all of the stuff from the other instances just fine even if you’re on a single user instance.
