What are you trying to accomplish? Hide/anonymize your Internet/torrenting activity? Or access your LAN devices from the Internet? Because those are two different use cases for VPN. One requires paying a third party provider, the other - hosting a VPN server on your network.

Agree with fast travel, but XP? That's a staple of RPGs

Sorry, I misunderstood. I definitely agree accounts created for the sole purpose of upvoting stuff/bot farms are bad. I just don't know if there's an effective way to fight it as they're getting pretty elaborate these days and it's hard to distinguish them from real accounts.

Pretty soon we'll be at the point where no one will trust anything on the Internet.

Why am I being a dick, I was genuinely curious. What do you mean "vote manipulation"? Like making a post with one account and creating another one to upvote the post?

But that's kinda the point of all posts. You post because you want people to see something and you want your post to be popular so it can be seen by the largest amount of people.

It would be great if that was the way it worked, unfortunately right now it's granular to the instance level, not user level. Not sure it's even possible to get it down to user level unless every user runs their own instance which is unlikely to ever happen. The data has to live somewhere, so we need instances or instance -equivalent to host the data. Maybe if they get it down to where hosting your own instance is super easy one-click ordeal. Then each user would be truly in control.

My PDF/A documents contain all kinds of content, including text and images. To me, it doesn't matter what format the encoded images are, as long as I can open them 20 years from now. Why would one care one way or another?

[-] lemming007@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure I understand. I just scan anything and let my software spit out PDF/A

I think this happens with any decentralized system: the users tend to cluster around a few big players. Those big players then get too big, get too much power and are able to control the entire system. I don't know why it's happening, I don't like it, but for some reason it does.

Thanks, I'll give it a try

How do you integrate Jakett search, do you have to install Jackett separately?
