well that was a long read, was interesting tho, think it's safe to say yes they won't be supporting it period, they just didn't wanna say it.

I agree, I would likely use it if it was an actual app, sadly due to restrictions web apps have on my device I can't use it xD

thanks! I figured it was on my end since I was mobile using a new app! lol

I use Bacula to an external drive, it was a pain in the ass to configure but once it's running its super reliable and easily extended to other drives or folders

unfortunately with that style of software it also encourages crackers to pirate the subscription in, I know many are doing that with netlimitor because with newer releases it is forcing a paid bi yearly sub in place of the perma license. I'm holding onto my keys and staying on the older version for as long as I can. Sublime Text is the same way

my process is:

  • click site
  • inspect element
  • delete
  • if that doesn't work go elsewherei have better use of my time then visit a site like that

honestly I don't give a damn if people know I downvoted, otherwise what's the down vote worth lol

it concerns me as a whole, it's been happening for 3 weeks now, I'm chalking it down as the backbone just can't keep up with it, there's quite a few open issues on the Github(the lemmy one) for optimization and performance errors, I honestly don't think Lemmy is going to be able to handle the influx of users at a large scale without some of those issues being addressed. I'm going to hold out but, I can forsee people deciding it's not worth having to wait 40 seconds for a comment to post, or having to refresh multiple times due to Api errors. Hopefully they can get it straightened out

for point of ref; this comment it took 70 seconds to post using connect, and when I tried to go back to home I was met with the 500 error

I feel like they just went down the list of permissions and said yes to everything, they probally actually log it all too, disgusting

yes, they have web scrapers that auto index according to the sites robot.txt, you can see what twitter asks to allow scraped by visiting here

that being said some sites would be prioritized over others, so it's possible that they just deprioritized twitter on it since it's now not as friendly for them. But the current rules are super strict as well so it could just be self imposed

I havent gone back since I've made my account. I've blocked reddit.com at the DNS level on my network and I'm avoiding the platform. I like the updates about the situation here but Honestly it would be amazing if they could mirror posts instead of link the original source since half of the posts just expect you to visit the r/sub it happened in which I refuse to do.
