Got it in 2. Capitals in 8, though.

Probably more. Just search for 'x' in a name register and filter the normal ones like Alex.

Yes. Technically, a similar vote could repeal the law just as easily but there is a history of governments not giving their power away easily; implementing it also sets a precedent and creates technical enforcement options for other governments willing to go through with something similar in the future, or for hackers to exploit because gov-rooted devices will remain in operation for years after the potential repeal.

Sure but if we succeed at mitigating cimate change effects to a reasonable degree, civilization will survive for centuries, during which a reactor that uses itmight become available. It's a minor problem blown out of proportion, as opposed to CO₂ emissions, which are the opposite.

Don't be that pessimistic, most users had to install Reddit, Twitter and TikTok apps. In the 2010s, grassroots chain emails and Facebook posts with guides to setting up WhatsApp went viral among boomers in my country, touting it as "free SMS". (Facebook camnot legally describe it as "free SMS" but they didn't bother correcting anyone of course.) The fediverse experience is already quite OK if you have a dedicated client but the problem is that not everyone does, which is why we need browser support; people are tired of "wOrKs bEtTeR iN ThE aPp" even if it's true this time. A dedicated URL scheme will automatically associate Fediverse links with any appropriate installed web/local apps. There are still other issues such as hit-and-miss cross-fedi-platform compatibility, no API for retrieving the list of federated instances and lack of appropriate error messages if the source and/or destination instance block each other.

They do, and I like how seamlessly mailto: links on websites work with web and local apps: your browser will give you a choice and either will work because email servers network with one another (obviously). Perhaps we could do this with linking to content across the Fediverse, with a custom URL scheme such as apub:@Blaze@reddthat.com. I explore this in my other comment at apub:post/20744080/11206632@reddthat.com.

 

The problem: My download is fine but seeding is very slow and intermittent even for popular torrents. I think this could be improved using IPv6 via 6to4. 6in4 or 6rd, all of which are supported by my router, to discover more peers.

My ISP allowed me to forward the port so I am discoverable via IPv4, but doesn't support IPv6 and I understand the aforementioned technologies as a way to connect to a tunnel broker, which would forward my packets to the IPv6 internet.

However, they are another entity that can monitor my internet activity. Are there any, preferrably free, 6in4/6to4/6rd tunnel providers that are known to be torrent-friendly? Are there any firewall rules I should set up for my security, like only allowing IPv6 traffic to the qBittorrent port? My ISP doesn't care about torrenting so I haven't been using any kind of VPN. Should I?

Oddly enough, I have no problems seeding on a specifically Central European torrent tracker, which usually maxes out my measly 2 Mb/s DSL upload, but the dozens of peers at international trackers, some of which must be in Europe, barely leech data from me. Am I presumed to be slow because of a slow ping from the presumably American server, or is my disqualification from IPv6 so impactful? I find it strange as I can download from 20+ peers simultaneously and top out my 20 Mb/s plan.

 

In the linked comment, I am lamenting that on Jerboa, you cannot easily see where the post’s link goes. When you click it, Android parses the domain name rather than filetype so the default action is to open with Jerboa. Because Jerboa cannot open the video, it just shows the instance’s home feed. The user needs to share/copy and paste the link to see the URL and deduce that it should be opened with a video player.

So please give Lemmy-hosted video links an appropriate icon (▶️/🎞/🎥 rather than ⛓️) and open them with an external app by default (the user can choose VLC or whatever) unless a built-in video player is getting implemented. Alternatively, a RIF-style pop-up would be appreciated to view the destination URL and offer actions like “Share/Copy/Go”, or even navigate to next/previous hyperlinks in comments (useful for fat-fingered users).
