Google basically killed Jabber/XMPP doing exactly what Meta/Facebook is doing here.
I don’t know, but they are probably not going to ban paying customers.
They routinely ban paying customers (email, cloud hosting) and developers that bring in revenue for them through the Play Store.
Yes, there is. Within a minute of opening it, the memory usage is at 8+ GB. Closing the main page fixes it in about 30 seconds.
I did recommend Pihole in my original reply. But there's no way to block Youtube ads using it, as was being asked in the reply to my original reply.
Depending on what method you use, you would either have to change the configuration for port mapping in a file or when you run the container. It's simple enough, and you should be able to figure it out quite easily. If not, help for Docker related stuff is never far away.
Pihole is easy and light enough. I used to host Transmission (transmission-daemon) on a 3B+ and it worked alright for seeding around 300-500 torrents. FreshRSS also worked alongside.
It's using the search keyword feature, where you can right-click on any search field and do this exact thing. Works with most search fields anywhere. I just used it to substitute parts of the URL.
Been using this one for over a decade. Works with Firefox's bookmark keywords feature.
Make a new bookmark, set the link as follows:
https://lemmy.world/c/%s (or your own Lemmy instance)
And in the "Keyword" field, use "c" or "lemmy" or whatever.
Now, when you want to visit a specific Lemmy community on your home instance, you can simply type:
"c community_name" in the address bar, or "lemmy community_name" in Firefox and it will automatically open the community.
Is having your passwords and TOTP in one place recommended? I would’ve thought that having both separate would be more secure.
Indeed. But there's nothing on the github there, so I didn't link it.
I've been using Cloudflare for a while now, Namecheap before that. Both have been good to me, but I prefer Cloudflare more for their various other services, so it made sense to move the domains there as well.
The $1/mo is for a student account. The regular account is $1.5/mo, and a family account is $2.3/mo. You'd probably need to use a VPN every time you wanted to renew it (monthly, I suppose). There are annual plans with a 10% discount, so you could probably go for an annual membership and have to do it only once a year.
Pihole + Firefox + uBlock Origin here, and it all works fine.
