  • If you’re in the US, it’s because all of the major ISPs siphoned up much of the ipv4 address space so they can still offer it to everyone.

    In Australia, on the other hand, most ISPs provide CGNAT by default, although most of them offer a free opt-out and have ipv6. Mobile services are also typically CGNAT, although many offer ipv6 + 464XLAT (an ipv4 compatibility mode using ipv6).

    In developing countries some sort of ipv6 solution is almost universal, particularly those with higher populations such as India, since it would cost an absurd amount of money to buy up that amount of ipv4 address space today.






  • I integrate Miniflux with readeck, which is then combined with a readeck plugin for koreader, allowing me to easily read articles on my ereader, without relying on a paid service.

    I’m also one of those people that still uses custom ROMs on Android, and since the backup and restore situation is still kind of dire if you don’t use Google (and sometimes even with) it’s easier to have most of my configuration and state stored on a server, and so I can wipe a phone with relatively little risk.










  • I like that matter provisioning requires verification of their certificate, but I don’t like that certificates can expire or the certificate authority can shut down. Although maybe that’s all taken care of by the DCL? In which case that’d be fine.

    It’s also pretty obnoxious that it requires an Android phone with Google play services enabled (and even a Google login IIRC) or an iOS phone. There are ways around this, but they are pretty complex and not well documented.


  • If any ai Ia involved they will dismiss not only it but you and it’s a really irritating habit that is starting to emerge.

    It’s perfectly understandable. It used to be that a project that had the appearance of a significant amount of work and polish put into it could be reasonably trusted. With the rise of LLMs, that assumption has gone completely out the window as people can churn out appealing looking slop in record time. In addition, LLMs are dominated by the most transparently evil tech companies in existence, and the fully open models aren’t yet good enough, and are still built on the backs of the absurd amount of energy usage used to train the models.

    That all being said, I don’t think the OP is being malicious and I appreciate the disclosure but I’d give this project a year of maintenance before I would reasonably trust it.
