That’s the thing. I get that people using the service on a third party client and not seeing ads is hurting their bottom line as they use bandwidth and not make money. But just banning them outright is a shit move. Ideally they would’ve made it part of Reddit Premium to make that a bit more worthwhile.

I can’t speak for your particular interests, but in my experience there is something for pretty much every niche. That’s what keeps YouTube in their dominant position as well.

Proton can also be used by other tools like Bottles. It’s very similar to Lutris but with a more general purpose focus, rather than just gaming.

None of the big VPN companies officially endorse use if their services for piracy or any illegal activities for that matter.

But to crack down on it they would have to keep logs on your activity and with that most of their legitimate use cases wouldn’t be valid anymore either.

They have to comply until 6 March 2024 under the Digital Markets Act, so hopefully we should see sideloading very soon. Fingers crossed

Fair point. Them not at least using USB 3 across the line up is silly and I don’t really see what they gain from doing it apart from maybe saving a cent in production.

But on the other hand I don’t think it matters either. The vast majority of people probably don’t plug their phone in for anything but charging and the few people that record large video files on their phone will probably get a pro model either.

So yeah USB 2 speeds are silly and I don’t want to defend a trillion dollar company for saving a cent on production but I don’t think it matters either.

Both iPhone 15 models were good iterative updates in my opinion. Nothing groundbreaking, sure, but Apple finally adopting both USB-C and AV1 is great to see and the programmable action button on the pro models is a nice addition as well.

That is true. But that’d be the case for any online/cloud 2FA service. So you could either have a local 2FA app just for Bitwarden or set up less secure but more convenient email 2FA.

I personally use Bitwarden for my 2FA needs. As others mentioned you can self host the server but personally I have no reason not to trust their SaaS solution, especially now that they offer EU hosted servers. If all you want is a basic authenticator app that does only one thing give FreeOTP a try, it’s made my RedHat. You can then sync the applications state.

This is amazing! Honestly a no brainer feature. Having to create an account just to contribute on one project’s instance is not a great experience currently and the reason I mainly stick to Github.

But if you on instance.alpha subscribe to a community on instance.beta that would federate the community to your local instance, right? Is there something I’m missing?

Firefox Relay is the best platform agnostic option in my opinion. It’s free to use for the basic variant and with Relay Premium you support Mozilla and can use custom domains as well.
