Saw this downloader on my feed today, and it looks neat.

torrent galaxy has what you’re after (as a boxset), and does imdb id search results.

Not access, knowledge. Giving a specifically unique device identifier every time you visit a page is different from the website guessing if you visited recently based on your screen size and cookies.

You have to set up ipv6 to change regularly to avoid that.

You have to take extra steps to ensure that the benefits of NAT aren’t lost when you switch to ipv6. Everyone knowing exactly which device you’re using because a single ipv6 IP per-device is the default.

Ipv6 is nice, but also you need to know what you’re doing to get all the benefits without any of the downsides.

Not sure what you mean about migration. People absolutely do move less when it is made harder to move. Mitigation isn’t perfect, it never is, but for damn sure it helps.

Just because the wall is dumb as fuck doesn’t mean it didn’t stop at least a few people from crossing the border.

Probably for the best if downvotes remain less easy to access, at the very least. There’s a myth that people who are suicidal will “find a way even if you take away some of the easier methods”, which is explicitly false. If you take away the easy option, you are directly reducing the harm that easy option might have caused. https://gizmodo.com/why-have-people-stopped-committing-suicide-with-gas-5959303

If the admins take away the quick and easy option for seeing who downvoted your passionate comment, the mods are directly reducing the number of people who go on rants about downvotes and targeted vitriol.

It has nothing to do with privacy; this is a public forum that by it’s very nature, requires that all activity be easily available to all the sites you federate with. There is not privacy in that.

This is about the type of community that forms around the software. Do we want to encourage, and make easily available, the list of people who disagree with you? Or do we want to to put minor barriers around that to help keep the number of people who do that low?

Naw. Downvotes are invisible by default here on fedia, but we can see upvotes. Just gotta check the page for them.

I gotta say, I’ve known this for a while, and the lack of downvote transparency has always frustrated me in the moment, but looking back it’s probably for the best. I would not have used it in a positive way.

You’re overthinking this and ascribing way too much intent for a basic complaint about disney being complicit with racist policies.

How does the saying go? If you have 9 Nazis in a room and one regular dude, you actually have ten Nazis in a room? Disney is that tenth dude in this picture.
