Hi, there are pre-made ipset lists also, ex: https://github.com/ktsaou/blocklist-ipsets

Hey, note that you can use mautrix-signal to access your Signal account within Element on this phone.

Yes, the only issue I have with it is that you can only have one TOTP for each site entry (need to create two separate entries if using two accounts).

When WCD closed, it had over 1M releases. Now these respectively have 1.8 and 1.3. Requests are filled-up quickly thanks to Spotify downloaders. Most torrents are xseeded on both, so there is redundancy. I’d say it’s doing pretty well.

Hi, how does it actually tracks payments? thanks!

Looks like it’s open again (since 4 days)

Yes, you can use “custom formats” to filters only scene groups (or your own prefered list) in Sonarr/Radarr. There are examples to import here: https://trash-guides.info/Radarr/Radarr-collection-of-custom-formats/#fr-scene-groups

Agree, very lightweight, simple once-and-forget setup.

Agree, AFAIC it’s only good at bridging protocols. Most likely an ecosystem advantage more than a protocol one.

much appreciated! 😀

this one is very nice too: https://diskprices.com/ (only amazon sources though)

zulip too (similar)

and they accept donations in crypto 👍

Meta’s expert […] argued that […] if Meta shared small blocks of data, they would be unusable to the receiver.

This is ridiculous. On a large torrent, a single piece can contain dozens of books. Pieces are contiguous unencrypted data. One piece contains several pages in any cases. What if I set my maximum ratio to 0.999, am I allowed to seed then?

I primarily buy used drives. Depending on your area, you might find buyers easily for your old 4TB+ ones.

Also the “auto normalize” option (true by default and only shown in advanced settings) can mess-up with your source files. Mouting source files read-only won’t work either as it is creating files in source folders.

These IPFS issues are basically UI-related. You wouldn’t expect a torrent to start within 2 seconds. You wouldn’t expect your torrent to be shared autonomously either. Technically, sharing IPFS hashes along with release names (similar to the crc32 on pre databases) would be very efficient, if only it was popular with a proper UI and indexing tooling. These hashes could even be signed by scene groups in the nfo.

I’d say yes. The user base / visibility of i2p torrent is pretty limited though. You can have a look at the Postman i2p tracker.

Sounds overkill just for backing up files.

Agree on Wireguard. It is faster, more stable and most likely more secured than SSH. And it will work with any application (no per-application configuration required). Without a third party tunneling service, you will need to expose a port in any case (you can setup port-knocking if you want to).
