Honestly the lack of ad blockers in Vanadium pushes me towards Firefox even though the devs say that Firefox is far less secure. So many web sites are just hard to use on mobile without an ad blocker so I’m curious what the rest of you are doing.
I’m setting up DHCP reservations on my home network and came up with a simple schema to identify devices: .100 is for desktops, .200 for mobiles, .010 for my devices, .020 for my wife’s, and so on. Does anyone else use schemas like this? I’ve also got .local DNS names for each device, but having a consistent schema feels...
Hey there fellas! My father found this crap online. It immediately triggered my bull crap detectors. Is it actually something worth checking out, or snake oil?
Sentinel dVPN does/did the same thing. You’d connect to their network, pay a Node operator directly with the network’s coin, and you’d use their connection. Don’t know how safe it was, with respect to seeing the through-traffic, but it did work.
As is stated in the title, I created and moderated !prolife. According to the modlog, this community was removed 10 days ago. The modlog doesn’t show me who removed the community. I understand the community wouldn’t necessarily be everyone’s cup of tea, but the actions taken seem improper....
Lemmy.one is run by the guy who runs privacy guides.org. That being said, if you look at the small list of communities he created, I guarantee that he won’t allow any conservative views there either. There’s one privacy community and 4 or 5 alternative lifestyle communities.
Better off making your own instance at this point. Most of Lemmy is liberal/left wing regardless of what their sidebars say.
I think it is better to have two accounts, with the same subscriptions, on two vastly different instances. At least for now.
There are going to be a lot of growing pains with upgrades/updates, and things breaking. As it stands right now, if “lemmy.world” goes down, half the lemmy-verse is inaccessible.
If I have another account on say “lemmy.one”, I can still connect to all the other instances (except for .world of course).
New people are going to gravitate to the largest instance because human nature suggests people want to belong to large groups. That is the intent of your point #1, to spread the load. I would clarify the objective to explain why people shouldn’t have their only account on the largest instance.
Example using US states: I’m on the Pennsylvania instance. I can see what’s going on in the other 49 instances, as well as the Washington DC instance (through federation). I should still have a representative in DC just in case.
If you use Graphene OS, what web browser do you use?

With lab grown meat we could see the advent of ethical cannibalism.
How do you organize your DHCP clients?

"Decentralised VPN"-is it bullcrap or not? (www.deeper.network)

Firefox is not as privacy-friendly as everyone says (www.youtube.com)
I think the best alternative would be LibreWolf
Google DRM / WEI
With Google’s proposed DRM / Web Environment Integrity project looming, will there be any change to PG’s recommended browsers?...
Google is already pushing WEI(DRM Webpage) into Chromium (github.com)
This is Depressing
Does anyone else feel as if it’s over when it comes to really owning your own things?...
I'd like to talk to the instance moderator who removed my community without talking to me first. (lemmy.world)

why is lemmy filled with porn?
I am rather annoyed having just come here....
How did Lemmy.world become more popular than Lemmy.ml?
I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.
