My router (TP Link) said it had a firmware update. I'm a responsible adult, so I update my firmware. When I log back in, I get this popup that they'd like to share my clients info.

cool...

I was on DD-WRT back when WRT54G but the DD-WRT devs don't really get it,
They make the bad compromises, and most of their initial contributors appears to have moved on to OpenWRT.

At this point DD-WRT isn't just another alternative, it's very stale while OpenWRT is still evolving rapidly and has the larger contributor community. And they put as much emphasis on performance, bloat reduction and efficiency as they do new features.

I have a 8MB nvram TP link archer C7 and it's actually faster in the latest version, that's basically unheard of in all of software !
