dog@suppo.fito Technology@beehaw.org•Firefox with arkenfox.js: Are these extensions still useful?7·2 years agoPersonally I suggest you straight up install Librewolf instead.
That said, most extensions aside from ublock are pointless these days.
Give piped.video a try. Basically a youtube frontend that isn’t ass.
dog@suppo.fito Selfhosted@lemmy.world•VPS for Wireguard that's not blocked everywhereEnglish1·2 years agoTry Windscribe, they offer residential and datacenter IP’s. I don’t get the point, but it’s your money.
I erroneously said the IP’s are less shared, but that’s not the case per the page.
But still, they get past more ip-blocking.

After reading where I’m even posting: Renting a cheap VPS and using Wireguard to tunnel to it is also an option.
Then it really is only used by you.
- Man, I’m really not reading today.
dog@suppo.fito Selfhosted@lemmy.world•[SOLVED] Can I host my own Lemmy instance on localhost?English2·2 years agoSee: Anything that can open ports. NAT of any kind tends to not allow opening ports.
dog@suppo.fito Selfhosted@lemmy.world•[SOLVED] Can I host my own Lemmy instance on localhost?English2·2 years agoYou can get Let’s Encrypt certificates for DuckDNS, so you don’t even need to own anything.
dog@suppo.fito Selfhosted@lemmy.world•[SOLVED] Can I host my own Lemmy instance on localhost?English3·2 years agoWorks with anything that can open ports. DuckDNS works by pinging their service from anywhere to update the target IP for the subdomain.

dog@suppo.fito No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•So uhh.. how often should I be washing me towels?422·2 years agoI wash mine when it starts growing mold. So anywhere from every 3 years to every 6 years.
dog@suppo.fito Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Saikou - the best Anime streaming app on Android - got DMCA'dEnglish46·2 years agoImo this is why big projects that are borderline like this should use github alternatives, preferably self hosted solutions. This was always going to happen.
dog@suppo.fito Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•I'm fed up with it, so I'm writing a browser8·2 years agoWhat we need isn’t browsers. What we need is an universal way to write extensions cross-browser.
Browsers themselves are easy to make. The problem is convincing extension devs to work with yet another codebase.
E: Think of it this way. There’s a lot of open source browsers out there.
Are you using any of them? Probably not.
Would you use one if it doesn’t have for example Bitwarden, Ublock Origin, Sponsorblock, and such mandatory extensions?
Users follow extensions and ease of use; not what’s good for them.
E2: A good project would be a builder extension for VSC for example, which compiles to all supported browsers.
Browser devs would then contribute to said extension via native-made plugins.
Cooperation of two fronts.

dog@suppo.fito Fediverse@lemmy.ml•New wave of Mastodon users thanks to Elon Musk floating around the idea of charging everyone for Twitter352·2 years agoSee, capitalism is good!
When it’s imploding on itself, that is.
dog@suppo.fito Gaming@beehaw.org•Terraria dev Re-Logic donates $100K to Godot Engine and FNA, plus ongoing funding24·2 years agoProtip: “It gets better later” isn’t a good way to promote a game.
It has to be good from the start.
If it isn’t and it can’t hook a player, you’ve just lost a customer, who likely just refunded the game as well.
Now personally: I like terraria from start to end. It got a bit boring in the middle. I used to not be able to play it at all because /something/ about the game really triggered my migraines. It doesn’t anymore, and I can play it.
Adding an asterisk on the *this particular thing happened quick.
I assume it would, but I don’t know, OP got the statistics.
E: OP had a link, it’s pretty fast drop.
Doubt it, that’s usually just a single command on the top level domain. Everything gets kicked out at once.
Edit: Also, suppo.fi also seemed to be down for a bit, and it’s probably in DE hetzner datacenter.
I was thinking it’s only spam servers, but it might actually just be downtime for hetzner or something.
Instances do not get banned on lemmy. You can run any kind of an instance.
That said, part of this could be providers pruning “fake customers”, aka spammers, scammers, etc, who “paid” for their servers with stolen CC and SSN.
Edit: Someone up to making an uptime map for Lemmy, placing servers on a map based on where they report originating at? This could help seeing if a specific datacenter has downtime.
dog@suppo.fito No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why doesn't youtube use p2p or bittorrent?3·2 years agoYoutube, as in the entire site, is an advertising platform.
Everything the user does is sold to the highest bidder.
Video ads make pennies compared to everything else.
dog@suppo.fito No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why doesn't youtube use p2p or bittorrent?9·2 years agoYou can actually just stream media files sequentially via torrents.
It only needs couple* seedboxes by Google to seed the torrents.
You do realize with more donations they can AFFORD to hire more people, and to get the help they need? Money is the solution. Let’s not downplay the value of it.
