People completely missing the point for an opportunity to shit on Apple is on brand though. Lol.

My fault. Sorry for the panic!

Yes! Private sites’ .torrent and magnet links know who you are so they can track your ratio.

The passkey is also why you shouldn’t share torrent files.

I’d try a different browser without extensions and work backwards from there. You can also try asking on our tech support Matrix room : https://matrix.to/#/%23div0-techsupport%3Amatrix.org

We’re good! See https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/547459 for more info.

Wait, what? You have a sauce?

I really want to know what that background is too!

You may notice slower speeds and difficulties downloading rare stuff. Generally, you’ll probably be OK if you’re looking for well-seeded files.

See here for a bit better explanation.

Def agree a boost button would make more sense and makes the intended purpose clear. At the end of the day I really only care that useful and insightful comments float up to the top.

Saw this earlier today and thought it was helpful understanding how it works from a high level. Nothing about Freenet though (: https://protonvpn.com/blog/what-is-i2p/

Yep, works fine (afaik)!

I’m seeing more people move that direction. It’s worth keeping an eye on it.

I think this is definitely the way to go! Just waiting on qbit now. VPNs are starting to feel dated (to me) for torrent use, but still great for privacy.

They’re generalist predators. Anything that isn’t going to eat the spider will work as long as your new friend can catch it. Meal worms should be cheap and easy if you’re looking for a longterm relationship.

My vote goes to ivpn and Proton (in that order).

I’m willing to pitch in with site stuff and take some of the load off of you!

That works pretty well; it’s not as polished as the geti2p docker, but it gets the job done! Just need to wait on qBittorrent to firm up their i2p support and I think it’ll be golden for my needs. Thanks!!

Yeah, ironic. A medium that should encourage vibrant communication and idea exchange has instead nurtured ignorance and hate. 🤦‍♀️ Thanks for your post!

Oh, interesting! I didn’t know the captchas were crap (how I feel about captchas anyway) on Lemmy. TIL. Seems like upgrading now has more benefit then; carry on and ignore me.
