13 days agoI thought we were abandoning Discord. Why do i still see so much coverage about this platform? I also still see way too many posts linking to substack.

I’m not sure about that, they had a 1B USD deal with Disney which is now cancelled
I’m skeptical about Sora getting killed. I think it’s very plausible that they just privated their model for internal use by the US gov. Sure, it’s one less power hungry AI video generator, but there are multiple of those available already, I don’t think it’s the win most people think it is.
This comes up every couple of months like some freshly uncovered secret. You can see it in Google trends too. I’m surprised to see this being so prevalent over the fediverse, I thought karma farming wasn’t a thing over here.
Serbia / Hungary.
My thoughts exactly. Also I wouldn’t really like to risk my stuff by connecting to their infrastructure anyway. At least over here, I saw how incompetent they are.
Yes, I just moved from github to a self hosted Forgejo instance the other week

Ooh, Australia, I have a question. Was PalTalk a big thing over there? Obviously way after what you described. I remember my father having an old classmate over from Australia and he introduced us to “The Internet”, and how instant messaging was possible a cross borders through PalTalk. Even though I never heard anyone using it in Europe, even years past that encounter.
I’ve been very happy with Netcup too as a European VPS provider. They have a coupon until the 17th if you decide to go with them, I think it applies 7EUR off of a purchase above 7EUR: netcupSpring26
As for throttling of the VPN traffic from the ISP side, that’s hard to say. Theoretically it’s possible they are doing deep packet inspection to specifically target VPN traffic, which would work through different ports, but I’d think that’s overkill. Maybe they’re doing it by protocol and just throttling UDP traffic, which would be easier, but I don’t know how to confirm that with mullvad.
