The usual; check the server and client logs.

This should allow averagenon-technical users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program.

;)

I’d look further into that bug because it’s not happening on my end.

Drive is under a different org:

TS is a lot easier to set up than WG and does not require a publicly accessible IP address nor any public whatsoever. It’s not really comparable to setting WG up yourself; especially w.r.t. security.

It’s a central server (that you could actually self-host publicly if you wanted to) whose purpose it is to facilitate P2P connections between your devices.

If you were outside your home network and wanted to connect to your server from your laptop, both devices would be connected to the TS server independently. When attempting to send IP packets between the devices, the initiating device (i.e. your laptop) would establish a direct wireguard tunnel to the receiving device. This process is managed by the individual devices while the central TS service merely facilitates communication between the devices for the purpose of establishing this connection.

If you’re worried about that, I can recommend a service like Tailscale which does not require permanently open ports to the outside world, offering quite a bit more security than an exposed traditional VPN server.

Yes, yes they will. If you’re the sole user, they’d identify you from your behaviour anyways.

I don’t think internet proxy won’t help very much w.r.t. privacy but it will make you a lot more susceptible to being blocked.

Thank you for your thoughts, I really enjoyed reading them :)

parents are a motor to innovation

Absolutely. No parents -> No children -> No innovation.

Old reddit absolutely had its issues. The new and newnew design is just decisively worse however.

This reads like a phrase from Half as Interesting.

I don’t like the Piped bot at all.

What should be posted on the internet should be the canonical source of some content, not a proxy for it. If users prefer a proxy, they should configure their clients to redirect to the proxy. Piped instances come and go and the entire project is at the mercy of Google tolerating it/not taking action against it, so it could be gone tomorrow.

I use piped myself. I have client-side configurations which simply redirects all Youtube links to my piped instance. No need for any bots here.

This would better be done in the front-end rather than a comment bot.

If you need languages other than “western European languages”, you’re SOL with this offline translator; whether you use it within Firefox or the extension.

That does not address the point made. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a complex hardware or software component in the stack; they will both fail.

Is “Grouped Results” disabled in settings?

Certainly better than the U.S. in that regard but I wouldn’t consider Germany “resilient” either.

Whether this is bad depends on your threat model. Additionally, you must also consider that other search engines are able to easily identify you without you explicitly identifying yourself. If you can’t fool https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/, you certainly can’t fool Google for instance. And that’s even ignoring the immense identifying potential of user behaviour.

Billing supports OpenNode AFAICT which I guess you could funnel your Moneros through but meh.

Edit: Phrasing.

I think you’re underestimating how huge of an undertaking a half-decent search index is, much less a good one.
