It forces you to review the share settings when you log in for the first time. I just encountered it on my Wife’s account. It’s not like they just sent an email saying “check your settings.” Again, I get the frustration with opt-out, I’m annoyed, too. However, people are definitely overreacting.
I don’t understand how this happens. When they added this feature, it walks you through what is shared and who it is shared with. I made all my shit private. I mean, I’m annoyed the default was to share it all, but it’s not like the first notification of this feature was the email about watch history.
Sounds like someone else is watching on your profile.
Doesn’t need to be the case if you segment your network to protect against ARP.
Don’t have the Wi-Fi network “upstream” of the LAN. You want the connection between the LAN and Wi-Fi to be through the WAN so you get NAT protection.
The risk is the ISP Wi-Fi. As long as you’re using WPA with a good long random passkey, the risk is minimal. However, anyone who had access to your Wi-Fi could initiate an ARP spoof (essentially be a man-in-the-middle)
As an FYI: this set up is vulnerable to ARP spoofing. I personally wouldn’t use any ISP-owned routers other than for NAT.
Damn it, I chose lemm.ee as my backup account (primary is lemmy.world) as it wasn’t the number two…
I’m happy with my ecobees.
He said you have to pick an instance and the instance likely has upload limits. Each limit is set by the person/people running the instance. Like Lemmy.world and Lemm.me are two separate Lemmy instances.
Peer tube is literally just Mastodon/Lemmy for videos…
I… Hate your face
