If you’re comfortable with using codeberg, yes, that’s the best place. Otherwise you can post in the comments of the original thread, complete the survey, or use github issues (if you must).

Sadly I don’t have an einc device. But if someone does, we’d be happy to accept feedback and include some images.

So most modern activitypub servers backfill threads and profiles. My single user instance processes 30000 notes a day. If I was actually trying, I’m sure it’d be easy to grab much more while appearing well behaved.

How does that help? My personal instance currently has a database of several million posts thanks to the various Mastodon relays. I don’t need to scrape your instance to sell your posts. I don’t, of course, but it’d be easy for some company to create friendlycutekittens.social and just start collecting posts. Do you really have time to audit every instance you federate with?

When watching a movie or tv show by ourselves, blind people can’t see the picture. So unless we are watching with a sighted friend, we would rather save on storage and bandwidth by only downloading the audio.

Audiovault.net is the website you want. Made by and for blind folks, it has thousands of AD tracks in mp3 format. You should be able to just sync them with the video. Though blind folks never bother; we only care about audio anyway.

Works well. I host this myself to check up on my data center and how it’s doing routing traffic to consumer isps in the real world.

Problem was that I usually only discovered the issue when I went to read the book lol

I never did that, my connection was too slow to want to take up someone’s DCC slot for like a day to get an entire movie. Remember all the frustrating idiots who would share .lit files, but forget to remove the DRM from them?

Ah, good to know. Back in my day, when we had to walk a hundred miles to school in the snow, up hill both ways, IRC was the only place to get ebooks. I’m guessing it’s just the old users clinging on now.

Man, I’m getting flashbacks to my days running omenserve on undernet. I had no idea people were still doing this! How does the content compare to places like Anna’s archive these days?

It's just as long and incomprehensible as Google's and Microsoft's. So I have no idea.

That's what worries me. When companies get desperate for cash, they tend to do pretty terrible things.

So who are they sending our product browsing data to in order to provide this service? At least I know what Microsoft and Google are doing with my data (nothing good). But Pocket and cloudflare and there VPN provider and whatever other random companies Firefox partners with? Who knows! How do I opt out? Who knows! How secure are these companies? Who knows! At least using Edge or Chrome I only have to hand over my data to one evil corporation, instead of several. Plus I actually get things I want in return (for me: automatic image descriptions, reader mode, read aloud, and AI based page summaries). Nothing I get from the companies Firefox works with are things I even want.

Based on the links you gave, it seems that captions default to off when new servers are created.

Ah, good to know! I don’t use meeting platforms that aren’t accessible by default for everyone. Looks like the problem, at least in Jitsi, is that enable captions defaults to off. It would need to default to on before I could use it.

How many of those support captions?
