Gotta admit the lighting looks just boring compared to the original. Hope they’ll patch that. Other than that, looks ok to me judging from that short video.

It’s not like there’s just one AI out there. You’ll find one that’s free, if you actually want to. Be it ChatGPT, Bing, something you run locally on your PC or whatever. Or, you know, just use a VPN or say you’re from the US in the registration form.

It’s basically like a room full of people with USB sticks. If you are just taking all of their USB sticks to download data off of, but you don’t put your data back on the USB sticks to share them with others, you’ll get kicked out of the part for being a jerk. It’s the same with torrents.

They are not the classic client-server thing that the web usually is. There isn’t a big server you are downloading from, it’s just other people that are seeding the torrent. So it’s common courtesy to do the same to allow more people to download it.

That’s the beauty of torrents. With servers, you just have to tell the owner to take the file down. With torrents, you’ll have to find every person that currently has the file and seeds it to take it fully offline. So yes, this exposes you to some risks. If you are downloading pirated content and live in a country where these laws are enforced, you’ll want to use a VPN to torrent. But with seeding, you’re giving back to the community that you’re taking from.

Yeah I was gonna say, felt like a deja vu. Didn’t The Zuck™️ try something similar?

Personally, I back up everything on my NAS except my movie library, because that is something I can relatively easily restore by just ~~downloading~~ buying it again, and because it’s of course the biggest chunk of data. For the other data, I’m using a very affordable Hetzner server auction system with a lot of disks in a striped array. This gives me the maximum amount of storage, and given that I can just create the backup again should the stripe fail, I’m not worried about redundancy on the backup itself.

In October, a new sorting mode was introduced: „scaled“

This allows sorting posts based on the size of the community in order to avoid the feed being dominated by large, active communities, and pushing smaller communities. This was one of the main blockers for me to move from Reddit, so I’m glad it’s finally implemented. Therefore, I would love to see this sort option be available in Avelon on supported instances.

Thanks!
