Objection! Hehe… No, wait. Really, I see a problem…

If registration are closed, mods would be exclusively from outside. And, since reports are not federated, this communities would be prone to difficulties for moderation. Unless reports are correctly federated, I don’t think this is a good idea. And, even if you were to open registrations only for mods, we would have only moved the inconvenience to this (who wants to have so many accounts, really?)

There’s also the problem with centralization of domain names under you. I don’t know you, and perhaps you’re well intended… So, it’s fine for the most part, let’s just assume that’s okay. Now, what happens if you had an accident or decided to go live in a farm? Without domain name renewals, etc. all communities would be in trouble. There’s centralization in the shape of a single point of failure.

I can’t see this happening even if the domain names are cool.

And, leaving disadvantages aside. What’s the point on this? Can you name any advantage?? I agree that it would be more ordered and I like that. But it’s quite subjective, and hardly anything huge to really break the inertia or status quo of things as they’re now…

Thanks for the intentions. Let’s focus on some new ideas, they’ll come…

Precisely my thought. OP should be ashamed and delete this thread ;P

I don’t know this group but I am on a telegram group that shares movies produced in my country of origin. It’s quite niche, I never saw any tracker that does the same. I doubt it for usenet but never looked into it. Anyway, my point is that some layman uploaders use whatever is at hand and not necessarily have much preparation or technically involved solutions…

You just mentioned what really is available nowadays. If you could mention an example of a “web interest” that’s not covered, perhaps someone could start it on the tildeverse…

Exactly my feeling when everyone was jumping into touch screens.

(I was able to type SMS in my pocket, using one hand, while walking. Sure, it took a 100 meters a sentence but it worked.)

Anyway, a smartphone comes with many other differences, mostly advantages. This is another leap of quality for gaming, watching movies, filling government forms on old websites, etc.

The paragraph with prices says it includes a foldable keyboard. I would have loved to see it… It’s probably shit but I’m enticed…

They still store the passwords like that? I remember that quote of Zuckerberg doing so, in the early days, and boasting about it to a friend… This was so outrageous at the time. Now it’s beyond absurdity… Not to mention the fine is so small!

Hopefully more devs switch to f-droid.org or start their own repositories ;)

it was implying that there is nothing interesting, hence no title.

This kind of messages should have a “/s” attached. IMHO, that’s just proper Netiquette.

I wouldn’t rationalize too much the decisions taken by a huge narcissistic like that guy, Melon Usk…

Been using syncthing with a script on my PC to keep copying stuff on another non synced location in the same filesystem with deduplication enabled (zfs). Technical solution, sadly, not many people are doing it… Btw i use… Xdd

And, chelsea manning. I’d love to see more whistleblowers in the world. That’s the kind of mass sousveillance we need!

And what was she doing with it? /s

Mullvad is trustworthy (imho, and because of audits).

Anyway, you can have both, and run purple i2p with blackjack and torrents!

The closest would be a folder, synchronized between phone and computer (e.g. using syncthing) where you save the torrent files. Then the client scans and automatically adds torrents from there. It will remove such files, so while at it, you should also configure to save completed torrent files somewhere. When possible, torrent files are a better option (they bring metadata, required if you ever wanted to re-share some content).

They were cutting files in smaller parts and spreading over multiple locations and countries. At least that was the claim in the early days, so anything illegal would require lawyers on many jurisdictions sending the same letter (e.g. DMCA takedown)

Ironically, it did work but now that Durov is in jail channel admins would do good to take precautions.

Oh. And an invite-only could also work for new accounts.
