Never 404get

[-] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 55 points 3 weeks ago

Fuck every instance that uses cloudfare. Even mine.

[-] ccunning@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

Wait, what’s wrong with cloudflare?

[-] Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 44 points 3 weeks ago

You mean besides the obvious problem with allowing one company to operate as a gatekeeper for a significant portion of the internet?

Cloudflare is shit. They're a diabolic extractive, toxic and anti-user megacorpo, they sell our metadata and telemetry, they censor us and can arbitrarily impose arbitrary terms or actions on users, terminates TLS when the data gets to their server, thus the data is decrypted when traveling from Cloudflare's server to the requested host or direction, and when acting as a CDN or security layer, they're actually a MITM intercepting and deciphering all the HTTPS traffic, then arbitrarily inspecting it in opaque ways.

I don't even know why or how so many people choose to believe them, even lots of "privacy concerned" users and "privacy-friendly" tools like if Cloudflare were any privacy-friendly at all.

If you're supposedly privacy concerned and/or privacy-friendly, but keep using Cloudflare software and services, then you don't care about privacy at all.

Then what is the alternative to protect from ddos attacks?

The free version is very generous, I dont see a better/equal alternative to it.

Anubis from Techaro, for example. It offers protection against DDoS, against bots, against scrapers and against AI.

The cloudfare captcha is the reason you can't see any image from lemmy.zip.

Looking through the list it sounds like folks are simultaneously upset that they have a non-interventionist policy and also that they do intervene in extreme cases.

Not an enviable position. I guess the answer is to strictly define and follow a policy setting when a situation escalates to the point they will intervene.

[-] FishFace@piefed.social 15 points 3 weeks ago

People think that if Cloudflare caved and started removing content, it'd be the right wing stuff and not the LGBT stuff, which seems preeetty naive.

Forces you to enable Javascript for websites that don't need it.

[-] danc4498@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

Even 100% of the internet?

[-] restingOface@quokk.au 22 points 3 weeks ago

Especially 100% of the Internet.

[-] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Oops, just accidentally the whole Internet

You ever type "Google" into Google?

[-] AdamBomb@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

What a silly question. The internet doesn’t weigh anything!

[-] restingOface@quokk.au 1 points 3 weeks ago

We all have our blind spots!

[-] craigers@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

If it is then it's expensive, put it back

[-] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Oops, all the internet

[-] SourDragon@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Fuck

[insert joke about getting a virus or something]

Mine does not!

[-] yesman@lemmy.world 48 points 3 weeks ago

Lemmy reminds me of 2001 because you get to watch the pictures load from the top down.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 21 points 3 weeks ago

I was working in Albany at the time. I was reaaaally hoping it wasn't going to cause...well, the way the world ended up. The terrorists won beyond their wildest dreams.

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago

Ironically, the terrorists lost on all their goals. Al-Qaeda wanted to scare the US out of the Middle East, instead they destroyed the US but made them more interventionist than any time since the beginning of the Cold War.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

It's so weird that terrorism mainly strengthens authoritarian regimes rather than bringing them down. But of course there's no reason at all to suspect that's their real goal.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I lived in Cleveland at the time. They evacuated Terminal Tower (the tallest skyscraper in Cleveland) in case the terrorists got so fucking far down the target list that they had to attack Cleveland.

[-] updn@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 weeks ago

Problem voting, please try again!

Why is this place like this?

[-] SomethingBurger@jlai.lu 2 points 3 weeks ago

Post not found.

[-] bandanawearingbanana@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

If you're using Android, I can highly recommend using Summit for Lemmy.

God knows what dark magic those bastards harnessed but it works so well!

[-] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Wasn’t it the Spider-Man movie that came out around that time that edited the towers out and rereleased it?

[-] Starfuckers_inc@lemmy.4d2.org 5 points 3 weeks ago

It was the Sam raimi Spiderman 1 film, if I remember correctly, it was a trailer that had to be retouched as the movie was released in 2002

[-] adarza@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

they also had to go back and reshoot some, as filming in new york had concluded months earlier.

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 weeks ago

all the coolest homies "fail to grab this image"

[-] Hello_there@fedia.io 5 points 3 weeks ago

I open original instance and that works

[-] nullify3112@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Someone repost the “use the boost to get through” meme please, I’m begging

[-] cardboardboxfort@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago
[-] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 4 points 3 weeks ago

ah yes, the deleted Lilo and Stitch scene.

[-] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 0 points 3 weeks ago

Funny enough I don't know if a picture has ever failed to load for me on Piefed, because if it did there wouldn't even be a space rendered for it.
