Archive.is can and does bypass real paywalls. That’s why it’s useful.
You literally called it a fake convenience in your previous comment. Do you have the memory of a goldfish?
Geolocation of users of course does not violate GDPR, don’t be ridiculous.
You have no idea what you’re talking about and clearly don’t understand the issue at hand, so yep, we’re done.
Not really a paywall then, is it? I don’t know why you think it’s fake, it’s a very real convenience.
Violating my rights ? Is geolocating your users violating their rights now?
It might be terrible for you but it’s very handy for the rest of us.
If it’s so bad, maybe just pay to bypass all the paywalls that the site removes from your way. Having your local ISPs details sent through is a small price to pay for the convenience.
And kart mechanics peaked in Crash Team Racing…
I was pretty impressed with it the other day, it converted ~150 lines of Python to C pretty flawlessly. I then asked it to extend the program by adding a progress bar to the program and that segfaulted, but it was immediately able to discover the segfault and fix it when I mentioned. Probably would have taken me an hour or two to write myself and ChatGPT did it in 5 minutes.
Speed of development. It could take months for a PR to get into Lemmy core and then a new release.
Things that get into Lemmy core have to be well thought out and the core Devs have to want them in there.
Running custom code is a way to make changes without having to get their approval, and if it proves popular enough, then maybe they’ll implement it upstream.
Your advice is applicable to your own original comment, so it seems you do agree with what I said, at least to some degree.
Anyway, in the interests of constructive discussion, let me ask you specifically. Do you think this WEI proposal is good for and why? Does the proposal mention at all what the downsides of this feature might be, or how it could be abused? Is it proposed in such a way that the dominant implementors can’t deviate later from the terms suggested in the proposal?
Seeing as you’re having such trouble with people’s reactions to this, maybe you should be the one in this thread to point out the specific reasons why individuals should be in favour of this.
You’re looking at it from the perspective of somebody who disagrees with Twitter as a company and a product.
I just hate their shitty UI.
As an American, surely you should be much more concerned about what the US government can do with your information than what the Chinese government can do with your information.
My favorite password is the string “a”, but I never get to use it anywhere due to these ridiculous restrictions 😔 Can you tell me which online services you administer so I can sign up for them and enjoy unfettered use of my favorite password?
So if you’re the only user (let’s assume for ease) then, that represents all the updates (posts, comments, votes) from each community that you are subscribed to?
That seems high when you extrapolate that to 10000 users, like a larger instance might have.
JavaScript paywalls are not real paywalls. So no, Firefox can’t bypass real paywalls.
Unlucky for your company to have a CISO with such poor reading comprehension.
