DNS based ad blocking does not block YouTube advertisements.


I guess it makes it easier to find/verify the owner if they lose it? (Though there are better ways to do that). Still feels weird.


Sort your data into stuff you absolutely need to keep (personal files and such) and stuff you’d be okay with losing (less important files, device backups, downloads you can redownload, etc). Then only back up the former. As for backup medium, ServerPartDeals often has some pretty good deals on storage; they were selling refurbished 12TB drives for $80 a pop a while back.


Most people aren’t choosing to enable OneDrive; it’s enabled by default, and not obvious how to disable.

What browser extension are you referring to? I don’t see a link. And yeah, they’re not the worst place to donate money to but they have plenty already.
Human heaven is also cow hell, it’s a very efficient system.


Didn’t see this earlier but another thread gave a good summary: https://piefed.social/comment/9505729


Cool, but this article looks like AI slop.


I pay for several domains, as well as mailbox.org for email. Aside from that, nothing.


Looks like I’ve been spreading misinformation, whoops. Edited my comment to clarify.


I don’t think it’s a good idea either, but it’s less egregious than filtering specific communities.


This filter is not part of any specific instance, it’s hardcoded into PieFed’s code. That means it applies to every PieFed instance unless the instance admin explicitly patches the code to remove it.


Got any other specific examples?


Each instance should be free to set their own rules. Individual instances blocking those communities is fine, but the PieFed devs hardcoding a blocklist that applies to all instances (especially one as opinionated and arbitrary as this) is absolutely not.
It was never a free feature; they used to only allow up to 2X speed. Not that that justifies it at all of course.
