Still. All you had to do was repost; complying with the rule you broke, that was pointed out to you via the removal message. It's not like you were punished for it.

You chose to draw further attention to your rule breaking. Mods aren't babysitters; they're volunteers with limited time and lots of work to do.

Also; I've never seen an [active] automod on Lemmy, and given the pinned post about the other bot(s), they don't seem to be working as intended/very well. Not all that surprised it didn't notify you.

Reposting cause mods didn't let me know title needed to be changed

Posters are expected to read the rules; hence no warning, just removal.

I found my works wifi blocks most ports outbound, but switching my my vpn to a more 'standard' port like 80, 443, 22, etc gets through just fine.

Now I've got a couple port forwarding rules I can switch on, as needed, that take one of those and route it to my vpn host.

It's honestly baffling how many people are, willfully ignorant of things they depend on.

I know far too many people that know nothing about cars beyond 'turn key, engine turns on'. I'm no mechanic either, but I can at least identify some parts and perform basic maintenance.

As far as I've seen, yes.

ISPs with a data cap? Lmao, nope.

Because many many people know absolutely nothing about ethernet or the actual hardware behind their wifi connection, as quite often that was setup by a technician from their ISP. When it comes to acquiring internet; a wifi name+password is all they've ever experienced.

Been using this for a while now. Not an extension, but a good bookmark to have.

Two mirrors.

A hand mirror and the bathroom mirror.
