After a bunch of research and weighing options, I went with a Withings Scanwatch. The 30 day battery time is a nice bonus.

Yes but they won’t count for ranked

This is probably it. Also ArchiveTeam is archiving Reddit as a high priority target so lots of bots scraping it

Fun fact: a block feature is required to be accepted by the Apple AppStore review process. So Twitter will disappear from Apple devices with this change.

Since this got some votes and became visible, here’s the source:

Apps with user-generated content present particular challenges, ranging from intellectual property infringement to anonymous bullying. To prevent abuse, apps with user-generated content or social networking services must include:

- A method for filtering objectionable material from being posted to the app

- A mechanism to report offensive content and timely responses to concerns

- The ability to block abusive users from the service

- Published contact information so users can easily reach you

I ended up still using Redact since I already had it set up, and it managed to overwrite and remove all my history without issue in one swoop :) Thanks anyways for the alternative, I’m sure it’ll help someone else out!

That’s fair to say. My source is someone who was indirectly involved with some of it, and an admin/moderator I trust of another privacy/security group. And like @sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works said, some of these things you can verify for yourself.

In cases like this it’s often hard to find the truth, and there’s always an amount of he said, she said; all I can say is that I personally trust these people, fwiw.

Rocks are cool indeed!

I’ve overwritten and deleted all my comments and posts and nuked my account. This is my new home.

I asked some friends who know a lot about this situation about this and apparently this is fake news.

Direct quote of what they send me:

He didn’t try to take over anything. The team behind PrivacyTools.io could not get in contact anymore with the domain owner and they haven’t seen him for a long time and had some conflicts with him before that too. So the team decided to move on to a new name, they got the domain PrivacyGuides.org and were migrating everything for weeks. Then, in the end, when everything was already migrated and redirected, the PrivacyTools.io owner came back a while later and was extremely angry that the team had moved away from his infrastructure.

Jonah is hosting the new servers and had already been hosting stuff for PTIO before. The PTIO guy is still incredibly salty and made a new website with a long article about how Jonah is plotting to take over everything.

This new website also contains many bad recommendations that are sponsored and he now makes money from. I would consider PTIO very untrustworthy at this point. The entire original team behind it moved on as well…

Pff I think this one is cooler 😎

Thanks! Perfect; I plan to use it ASAP!

In order of comfort:

• Rust on a PvE server (I happen to host one, they’re rare xD)
• RimWorld
• Vampire Survivors
• Factorio
• Sid Meier’s Covert Action
• Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)

Lately I’ve also really been enjoying Sheltered 2.

I’m just a member of the instance and I think mine has accidentally become the biggest one! But feel free to browse around on https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/communities :)

It should not be! But it can be that you need to search for for it on your communities page by the full name first (sometimes multiple times, or wait a bit) and then you can try following the link again.

For example: https://lemmygrad.ml/search/q/!gamedev%40lemmy.blahaj.zone/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1 (and hit search)

This happens if the instance you’re a member of has never indexed the instance that it is hosted on before.

Some of the small things to improve still in the Lemmy experience :)

I use Windows 10 LTSC 21H2. It’s the most up-to-date LTSC version.

LTSC = Long Term Servicing Channel, which is a special verson of Windows Enterprise that doesn’t receive feature updates, doesn’t come with all the extra bloat (onedrive, store, xbox game bar, candycrush, office trials, etc)… It’s meant for special support enterprise systems like MRI scanners, industrial use, etc…

The reason that I (legally, but for the wrong usecase) use it is that I don’t want to switch to Windows 11 or be nagged about it, nor do I want all the extra bloat on top of my OS. But I do want to stay secure, and I get security updates without trouble.

I would rather run a Linux distribution, sadly I do play a few games that are still not working on Linux, even with Proton and lots ot manual trickery. And I play them for about 40 hours a week.

I started !gamedev@lemmy.blahaj.zone last week; that might interest you and others as well. :)

I’ve also joined your gamedev community! <3

I’ve started https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/gamedev (!gamedev@lemmy.blahaj.zone) and it had a much larger influx of members already than I expected. Very nice :)

Yea agreed, please let me know if you find something! Thanks and good luck!

I’ve been told that Redact is good, but haven’t used it myself yet
