#Stackexchange just became a Cloudflare site, which means it’s now an exclusive resource and also everyone’s data including usernames & passwords are exposed to Cloudflare.

This is antithetical to the pro-privacy philosophies of the #Monero community. Please consider removing it from the sidebar or caution people about CF. Thanks.

there is a libreddit/invidious/proxitok style stackoverflow proxy project:

https://code.whatever.social/

https://github.com/httpjamesm/AnonymousOverflow

it's available in libredirect, which shows a useful list of instances and which ones use cloudflare

Great find! Glad to see there are some onion hosts as well.

Any idea how to adapt the monero.stackexchange link in the sidebar? The code.whatever.social page cannot handle that link apparently because it does not lead to a specific thread.

yeah i think that's just something that hasn't been implemented yet i think it was mainly created for people visiting stackoverflow from search engine results
