  • I used #Twitter to get information from a variety of sources using #Quacker, all the way until they decided to basically prevent non-registered users to browse the website. Now you literally have to login to access the tweets, or see any comments, which is ludicrous. It's not that generic public forum it used to be any longer and I don't understand how they are expecting to get any meaningful ad revenue there.

    #Mastodon is gazillion times better, has a normal community, albeit with a smaller user base, but that is probably a plus, since you don't get so many weirdos.

    Yeah? I've been stung for literally no reason at least once (one little shit ran directly into me and stung me while I was painting my porch), otherwise a couple of times one of these little bastards got caught under my arm and it 'defended' itself due to its own stupidity. I hate wasps. I want to see them gone.












  • A thought, one way to mitigate such security issues yourself would be to make use of subaddressing (the + sign) in your email address you use for such services, by appending your own random guid, for example, essentially making guessing your exact email address string futile. For example instead of using simply johndoe@example.com you would instead use johndoe+9be28cb9-fd22-4e9f-8144-93f90ab04a1f@example.com when registering. Assuming the service provider isn't using some lame and incorrect email address validation regex.
