The only thing I've seen it used for is skipping captchas on cloudflare.

I turned off my ad blocker and the paywall shows, turning it back on gives me the whole article so I guess blocking something on the page gets rid of the paywall.

Stuff ars publishes from other sources (especially wired) usually isn't worth reading.

I have diabetes but it's definitely the vitamins, it only happens when I take them. I had a gastric bypass and the bariatric vitamins have high amounts of everything to make up for the malabsorption.

None for me either. They might be one of the sites that let you see a certain amount of articles before nagging you. Usually private browsing gets around that.

Will that screw up displaying things that would be cached from other instances?

For me it's green.

People who haven't been through it don't seem to understand it. When my depression was really bad I lost 60 lbs in a few months and couldn't gain any back for 2 years. Even grabbing a premade salad out of the fridge or putting a microwave meal in the microwave was too much work.

For me it's people who have a profile pic of their kids on a messaging platform. The point of the pic is to make it easy to tell people apart in my conversation list and I'm not talking to their toddler, I'm talking to them.

It sucks there's no way to make use of the current csam blocklists except possibly if you're a big enough instance since you can't get access without approval. Instances going through cloudflare that use the cloudflare caching can use it through them but it only works on images it's serving so wouldn't block them being uploaded, just served to other instances.

Being forced back to the office is a paycut itself. It adds commute costs (fuel, wear and tear if you drive) and wastes more of your time you could spend doing other things. It also increases pollution and traffic for no good reason.
