I think who one gives that information to matters. I have chosen to give that to my non-profit VPN host, people who doesn’t know will never have the chance to chose. I think that’s important. Goodbye.

This is a good advice, but telling people that this allows adguard to know every domain one visits is an important part of the advice.

Did some listening on the Norwegian one, no errors per se…

Just quite old fashioned. This was how people spoke in the the 70’s and 80’s. If I met a person talking like that I’d insist they’d show me the time portal. Seriously, I want to get away from this decade. Help.

If you block it, it won’t reply to you. If you ban it on instance level, it will be blocked on all federated instances on all communities.

This is a good point. Yet I feel like there’s a point where the annoyance overshadows the benefits. If there’s an annoying bot on every single instance, is it still reasonable to snipe-ban individual bots? What if a server is mostly bots, yet have real users?

I think it’s better not to accept bots at all.

If you defederate, you will block real people on the instance the bot is on.

This is true. But the argument feels a bit hollow when you plan on blocking Threads. If you are willing to block ten million users, why shouldn’t others block your 40?

… No, snaps aren’t considered too open source as far as I know. For me it’s how it’s forced on me almost as hard as a Windows upgrade. I’m pretty sure my next linux distro is PopOS, not Ubuntu.
