legal streams already do

actually its not perfect with comments either. I keep 4 notifications in my inbox unread in case I could find out where I got them, 2 of which is inaccessible because they themselves were deleted and I can’t go back to see what was its parent thread

or rather: oh silly you were so clumsy that you disabled recall by accident again. let us be so kind to re-enable it for you

probably this is it’s manifestation: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4204

I think Dessalines has had some similar idea he has mentioned multiple times a few weeks ago

I have a few hundred public torrents active, and they all have peers, even the “fringe” ones. maybe your statistics is right, but even then it has value. I don’t care about leechers if it improves the service for us too

thanks Microsoft for hiding extensions by default!

and over public DHT. we can share magnet links in this community, and why keep it to us only? if we keep it public, the survivability of torrents can even improve

that is basically DNS based filtering. no, it does not have the same capabilities as uBO. Or can it make changes to packets going in and out of the system? I doubt it.

they can, through the mechanism that also allows to install apps to your phone from the google play store website.

how do you block ads phone-wide?

you have said this

I’m blocking ads phone-wide

I wanted to let you know that such a countermeasure is not as effective as confining untrusted parties into a web browser with ublock

because it is not a free service, you are watching ads.

I may accept it if it was not bundled with data mining. and if they wouldn’t constantly increase prices

ublock is more efficient in the browser than any dns based blocking, as it can (and does) make changes to the website itself

there is 0% risk until your country makes a law that prohibits any and all P2P communication. That would not only break torrents, but would thwart signal/telegram/whatsapp calls too, Jitsi meetings, probably google meet and zoom too, as all those use P2P traffic for performance.

So far there are only such laws in far east countries, and the official java I2P router is smart enough to not participate in routing when you are in such a place.
Also, I think for routing to work you need to open a port, without it that won’t be done.

as a node

• you are unable to see the contents of traffic you route thanks to layered encryption
• you wont be routing traffic to the internet (unless you specifically set it up), but only to other I2P routers

I know nothing about seedboxes, but on a computer you can point multiple torrents to the same directory. If you make it read-only, by permission or mount options or whatever, the torrent client can’t even fuck it up

it wasn’t abandoned, they are developing an overhaul with a more efficient sync API that required them to rethink how it works internally

there are moderation abilities, but instead of all-seeing global moderators it must be done by the little poor room owner, and the mods they have granted permission.

if the existing owner/mods don’t do that, and disgusting content starts appearing in the room, that means they probably aren’t active anymore, and that it’s time to make a new room with the still active members before something even more damaging happens, like an uncontrollable high volume spammer, at which point you won’t be able to tell the others that you have made a new room.

It kinda gets different when you’re talking about a series of actors intermingling in an environment designed by the seller.

I think that gets problematic. We are very often “intermingling in an environment designed by the seller” for agood reason, which should not be denied. Let’s have a look at websites: changing the style, tracker and adblocking (or even just blocking all the scripts), … I want to be able to do the same with any other program I run, like I take steps on my Android phone to thwart apps tracking me when I can’t find a better, open source alternative, but if a judge would use your argument, they would probably say that even using firewall software to deny network connections to the program is unlawful.

I don’t agree with cheaters using aimbots, wallhacks and whatnot, but it’s because it directly destroys the experience of other players.
