I wish Mullvad would expand their service to offer something like NextDNS with blocklists. I love DNS expect for the fact that they are based in the US and have the capability of logging.
That said, without the occasional log I would probably never have been able to fix some issues.

So is MementoMori half bot, half human? I’ve blocked bots because they post so many articles of poor quality, but then you have people like this who also posts a lot of low quality posts without any opening comment, but is not marked as a bot and occasionally write some comments.
Some people seem to really enjoy the articles posted by the content bot, but others seem to think that the bot post too many articles and clog up their RSS feeds. Come give us your opinion in the straw poll.
Lemmy and Tildes has really shown me how much more interesting information is when it’s given by a real person with some context or an opening post.
A news article posted by a bot to… farm karma on Lemmy?? It’s just noise. Many of such articles posted have clickbait titles and comments under them tend to have less value and are based around uniformed opinions coming from the (often misleading) title alone.
Quality aside, I guess I don’t really see the point. To who’s benefit are bot content posted? It feels like advertising to me. I’d like to think that the community are able to sustain itself by the content someone cared enough about to bother post it here.
In short, bot created content is noise to me, while content posted by real persons has value.

I think it has been very useful with promotion of the various Lemmy apps coming out for iOS / macOS and don’t mind them at all. Maybe they could be allowed for a time still so new apps in the space still get a fair chance to grow and become alternatives?
At first this article reads like your typical anti-piracy screed. It rants about how 10x more people watched GoT illegally (confusing them with lost sales) and ends with how downloading movies can get your credit card stolen....
I did pay for all seasons, but we could only get it legally through a horrible HBO Nordic app with insanely poor quality, so yeah I did also put in some effort in watching the series in a little more decent quality, but it’s just weird how low quality all streaming options were.
I know we pretty much all hated spez for all the shit he pulled, but a few weeks ago the tone towards reddit itself around here was more neutral. People liked it here on Lemmy a lot better, but people weren’t hating on the old place so much....
Yeah, it was great with more content. Or was it - so much of it is just stupid articles written as clickbait or strongly opinionated pretending neutrality.
And all the bad memes… really wish I could block communities my regex.
But I kept visiting Reddit while Apollo was up, so… and there are good Content here as well.
There are still more sane alternatives, like joining Beehaw and stick to local communities, or check out Tildes.
The quality of Star Trek in 1997 was an embarrassment of riches. Some of the best parts of the Dominion War on Deep Space Nine, Scorpion and Year Of Hell on Voyager, and First Contact in theaters. It was a great year to be a Star Trek fan!...
Voyager has now reached a self-sustained rate of content generation from all the commits and pull requests to its source code repo, and no longer needs Lemmy as a source....
I guess you do get 3-4 questions when you install Vivaldi, like do you want tabs on top, should it import anything, and do you want to use mail and calendar too or just browser.
But “a complicated beast” to set up? No, it works like any other browser right out of the box. It offers advanced customization if you want to dive into them though.
I agree. But I’m still evaluating if it’s worth it. I search a lot. I’ve already had to upgrade to the $10 a month plan. I might have to upgrade to the $25.
That’s a lot. I love it though. I’ll probably end up canceling some streaming service in favor of keeping Kagi.
I’ve got Jellyfin up and running right now on a DS620Slim NAS and it’s running pretty good so far. I’ve seen a lot of people say they prefer Plex over Jellyfin. What are the main advantages to plex?
The Kon-Tiki expedition in 1947 proved that you could cross this Ocean by the means available to these Polynesians, and that they could very well have traveled to/from South America.
I was a happy Netflix user until 2018, before that I haven’t really pirated any movies (with very rare exceptions) for almost a decade but I recently started again. I’m was doing my monthly budgeting and realized I was paying for too many subscription services. Netflix, Amazon Prime, Shudder, Disney+, Hulu and Crunchyroll....
As long as you’re aware that “it just works” with Plex means it is phoning home to Plex servers with all your logins, actions and movies then you’re good to go.
Sounds good! Just be aware that Plex has been hacked in the past and handled communications about it poorly, and that it will probably happen again. It was what made me switch to Jellyfin myself, but doesn’t have to be a showstopper for you.

Also asked them if torrenting legal stuff is allowed and they said no.
