It's a very bold strategy, Google could easily decide to stop promoting Reddit results so aggressively.

However, I don't see this working against scrapers- it feels like scraping Reddit through unauthorized commercial APIs has only gotten cheaper since they introduced the first restrictions.

I don't think it's sarcasm, I didn't know this was a thing either! At first, I thought OP was writing about their mobile connection.

Some carriers in my country have recently started to share the same IP between 4 customers, each having a port range (1-16363, ...), but you can always request a full IP for free.

Are you sure? It is my understanding that Parallels is just a VM, like VMWare Fusion, and that there's no way to natively dual boot Windows on Apple Silicon.

Looks like you're right about Linux though, I didn't know about Asahi Linux. Thank you for sharing.

I recently snagged a really good deal on a Macbook (very nice hardware!), but the more I use it, the more I struggle with macOS (even though a few utilities can help bring some of Windows' features).

I used to be able to completely boot into Windows on my Intel mac a few years ago, but Apple no longer supports it for some reason. It's a shame, especially since the ARM64 version of Windows 11 has gotten very good now.

It would also be nice to be able to install Linux too. It's my own hardware, after all!

No, I just want to be able to boot into Windows 11. It worked really well on Intel macs.

Bring back Boot Camp and let us install Windows 11 on these, you cowards!

Same, I just checked and this week the vast majority of the bot traffic I get is random residential IPs that all pretend to be the exact same Chrome 155 on Linux.

Yes, Dia has that "Arc feel", at least on macOS, it's very nice to use. Sadly, it still doesn't have all of Arc's features (I'll miss Boosts).

I think Facebook is fine? It's where most neighborhood/city groups seem to be, and it works as expected for this. Marketplace is also pretty good, with less scams than other similar platforms.

I really wouldn't want search engines to pay me to crawl my websites, why would you? The point of publishing stuff online is for people to access it.
