Vivaldi has feeds built into the Mail client and browser.

The Jellyfin web interface is much better than the Android TV app. You’re not missing out.

There’s no cloud services in Jellyfin. You have to set up a VPN on your server, and an account for them on the VPN, plus create a user account for them on Jellyfin. It’s not impossible, but it’s more work.

I use Jellyfin’s web interface on the TV. It’s way better than the Android TV app.

> Trying to preserve part of the Internet is apparently against the rules.

It’s against copyright laws too, unless you get the right holders’ go-ahead first.

Some regional differences, but it’s mostly not allowed with a few exceptions for some institutions.

Anti-discrimination laws should be updated to include personal software preferences. “You can’t tell my gay-ass not to use Firefox on Linux!”

(Author here.) Complain about in a blog post and hope it gets picked up on Hacker News?

That’s one of the theories discussed in the article, yes.

(Author here.) This is possible, but implausible. I log network traffic and haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary. The point of the article was mostly to complain about the lack of information from Cloudflare, though. I don’t know what caused the blockade, and they’re not telling. How am I — as an end-user — supposed to do anything about the situation? I don’t even know what the situation is.

(Author here.) I don't use a VPN from my home connection.

You can't have privacy-focused and free services. You're either the paying customer or the product being sold.

They're a powerful tool that lets you shopt off your foot and half your brains with the same bullet. However, this my router isn't compromised. MikroTik routers can easily be misconfigured to be insecure or misbehave. It's a Cisco clone, so that is the product you're buying.

I don't recommend them to anyone who doesn't enjoy and are familiar with the lower-level intricacies of network operations.

No. It isn't.

Dear John. What am I — as a normal human being/end-user — supposed to do in this situation? People can’t do anything without any information about why they’re blocked. Who do you contact? Where do you go? What to do? The challenge page doesn’t help the end user understand why this is happening to them. It’s okay if you only see it for two seconds. But the page stays on screen for over a minute. When this happens for every website — what do you do? You’d be furious if this had happen to you. I’m just trying to read my online comics and lookup some stuff about some interests and hobbies. It reduced my quality of life/sanity for a week. The last two days, I started worrying that this was going to be the new normal. I even looked into swapping ISP to get a new IP address.

PS: I love all the innovation and engineering stuff you guys regularly share on the Cloudflare blog. It’s [almost] always an interesting read. Even though I’m no fan of the massive centralization your company has caused.

I edited and added a second link to a support page that mentions it too.
