Definitely wasn't worth it before and now they want to increase prices? Yikes. Guess I'll keep using revanced forever then

I've got inside knowledge of where this valuable feedback is going, try and keep it private tho

Along with what the other old mates have said. Using containers is super handy in web development. You can use Docker Desktop (windows, mac, linux etc) and set up containers, one for PHP, another for postgres (database) and have them all interconnect.

The benefit I've found is that once someone has set up a docker file (the thing that says how it all builds and interconnects) you can launch it with a single click.

The Kbin project itself has a docker setup to get up and running, handling most of the connection between the database and Symfony (the framework of the website)

The issue is I'm keen on following the self-hosting / server specific content but generally I've got nothing exciting to add. I can offer upvotes and kbin boosts 🚀

It's pretty creepy to want to use people's likeness forever, so it can be used for any purpose in the future. It's perfectly fair for these actors to be pissed.

Companies will never do the right thing without being forced to do it, it's just not in their nature. So having strikes and forcing their hand along with regulation is the only real solution

This is a strange one. I assumed people wanting this type of service would want to view all the content from the fediverse but not push to the fediverse

E.g. start your own instance of kbin and connect with everyone but turn off your own federation so no one sees your posts.

Wonder if that scenario has been catered to?

Eventually I'm assuming sites will need to implement some type of auto mod system when they get to scale. It's only a matter of time before bots and bad actors see these sites as valuable targets

How's newpipe compared to sometime like revanced? Anyone given both a go?

Seen this sentiment that green bubbles = bad a few times online but never it's never come up for me. I assume this is a teen - early adult specific issue where the idea is mostly to be part of the group

Don't understand why it's so hard to create a consistent, clean looking windows UI. I get having to support ancient apps but so much of the experience feels unpolished

I know we're using codeberg for kbin.social

It's been a pretty decent experience so far, similar to GitHub but a little more basic. The markdown editor is my biggest gripe so far, it has weird backspace handling on mobile

You can set up private DNS like others have suggested here, dns.adguard.com

I've found it's pretty handy removing ads overall. The first few links on Google, the sponsored section often doesn't work (since sponsors are ad based)
