Do you mean Calibre?

Bots are indeed a problem, but at the same time so are the huge swaths of users dedicated to a single users whim. When one person with enough pulls says “I want to take over this entire area of the canvas” and it happens in minutes?… it ruins the experience. Bots are just a way for this to happen without the following.

The only issue this would truly cause in the long run is a bit of admin work. There are and were plenty of scabs willing to take over unmoderated subs. Sure, the quality of those subs would have suffered, but Reddit never cared about that beyond what essentially boiled down to “don’t let “bad” content stay up.” Beyond that, mods could do whatever they wanted for the most part.

Not in the slightest.

No shame in fearing firefighters.

I get where you’re coming from, but keep in mind that at the time this happened, there were 2 people working on the code, and likely only a handful paying.

TRMM was originally a personal project, at the beginning of which it makes some sense to intermingle things on the “official” site. I know I’ve done similar, but my projects never take off to the point that people are doing an audit. And I know I would absolutely make that exact exe for personal use.

Keep in mind, the only reason the version with a crypto miner was found was because someone went digging around. No one was ever linked to the installer, no one had ever downloaded it by mistake, no one had ever had it stealthily installed without consent.

I get that it’s a scary concept, like when brave was found to be injecting affiliate links into normal traffic. But in this case it wasn’t even something put in prod. It was found by accident, in a place that wasn’t doing any harm, and was never found in the wild.

Seems like a lot to get worked up over.

As for the discord chat, I’m not surprised. Having been in their discord for about as long as that “scandal” has been around: The reason his responses were fumbling? He’s just a hobbyist that’s managed to get one of his projects into a good enough place to make money off of. Are you expecting a PR team level of response?

Lemussy.

I’m willing to bet they’ll care. When your community is vocal enough about such an issue to crowd out others? Yeah, that’s not a good sign for their investment. And it’s all directed at a single person.

To be fair, the mods of r/place are admins are they not?

FYI you’re looking for a reverse proxy. There are addons for HA that handle that, such as NGINX Proxy Manager.

I feel the need to point out, there is porn on both instances. Just more on lemmynsfw.

Self hosting is fine, assuming you have sane policies in place. Policies like “don’t play in prod” and “don’t let the intern touch prod.” 🤪

It has interesting uses but I agree it’s more than a teeny bit dangerous. https://getamp.sh/ uses it to simplify the install command.

Only to immediately bomb following, showing that their metrics are extremely unreliable, and their user base volatile.

Someone didn’t pay attention to the community they’re commenting in.

2 and 4.

• 2 mostly covers 1 and partially covers 3.
• 4 gives me a longer lifespan to do it, and ensures no health related interruptions.
• 5 Is semi meh. Has the implication of infinite money but I doubt that’s the case.
• 6 Is hard to pass up, as it kinda contends with 4 for time, but I could see it going terribly.
• 7 is meh if it’s only as strong as I am.
• Why would you need 8 if you have a partner? O.o
