Kbin’s API is only just being finished right now so that explains the lack of third party apps and tools. It’s coming out soon though and Artemis should be out of private beta soon if not already.
But it's just not the same. There are no apps. The format is not reader-friendly. Usability is way low.
Hang in there, there’s an app Artemis coming in the next couple of weeks. I believe it’ll be a public beta so prob lots of QOL thinks to work out, but it’s coming.
Separately, I am personally perfectly OK if kbin is not like the Reddit experience in terms of community and content. I prefer it that way.
Cloudflare - honestly probably the best. No, you will not save money. But you get the single best DNS / Cloud Firewall combination in the world.
Enom - Again, not about saving money. The UI is dated ... but the sub account options works well for the "family and friends" thing so that you are not on the hook for renewing THEIR crap. You can keep your stuff your stuff and their stuff their stuff.
I’ve recently learned of Njalla, created by one the founders of The Pirate Bay focused on providing true anonymity. Handy if take-down/DMCA notices are a problem for you.
Yup, thats how they provide anonymity to their customers: The domain is registered under their company name, providing their contact information to the public registrar; while transferring full control to you. This means any contact via whois goes to them instead of you or a less tolerant host.
They don’t provide a proxy/waf service by default, the dns records point to your ip/infrastructure just as any other domain does. You can however host via their vps services and/or route traffic through their vpn to hide your ip as well if you like.
I just keep thinking back to when Elon was trying to get Stephen King to pay for a blue checkmark and people told him "Twitter should be paying Stephen King."
It’s worth noting, I think, that Substack has a similar problem with this (& had it even prior to Musk Twitter). I mention this not to diminish how bad Twitter’s doing so is, but because I know that some folks were looking to Substack as an alternative to Twitter for continuing to follow some people or to post to instead.
For whatever reason it seems like Substack’s managed to carry on without as many people aware of this or acknowledging it even if they are.
Not surprised, but I'm glad the media is calling it out, and the article does a good job going in-depth. I'm pretty certain it's part of a larger effort on the part of his Saudi and Russian backers to influence the upcoming elections.
The Facebook company’s new social platform is like Twitter, but for celebrities, brands, and annoying people.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that just like Twitter?
