  • Still use IRC but it gets really clunky / complicated when you want to have push notifications / persistent history etc.. You end up setting up something like ZNC (IRC Bouncer) to act as an always online server and then hooking clients to it persist your online status.

  • When you jumped on to chat (IRC) you didn't get pressured into upgrading to nitro (Discord).. IRC is still around but all the nice free networks have been decimated in acquisitions and other things.. there are still a lot of great Niche communities if you look hard however.

  • You can still do SEO (search engine optimization) but making sure all the prefered metadata is there, sitemaps etc.. It improves your rank.

    Isn't going to put you at the top, that is the job of the content but it can be the difference between being on page one or not.

  • Anything with magic, super powers, monsters, daemons, aliens tends to be terrifying from a common persons point of view. Parasyte is rather disturbing even for the main character. The only answer in that one seems to be go live alone in the woods / hope for a quick death vs being infected.

  • Not really.. Nearly every phpBB, SMF, Invision forum etc is a separate self hosted community and they get indexed. Hell even small ones like one of my gaming guilds ranked high for specific key words.

    For SEO to work well you need clear links to clear topics, and it helps to have automatic metada also to assist indexing.

    Having google compatible site maps assists in crawling the site.

  • WebDAV is a very old and very technical protocol to setup. The average user just wants to get the app and have it work everywhere.

    I did run keypass for many years but the janky sync (it is better now) was one of the driving forces for me to change.

    These days group password sharing among my family is a key feature (Netflix,Disney+) which is another feature found in some of the newer passwords managers.

  • Since you only listed apple platforms you can also just use the built in options for both password management and 2FA.

    Edit: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/ipha6173c19f/ios

    There are even plugins for browser on windows for it if needed.

    Lacks advanced family password sharing and other features but it is hard to beat for ease of use for an individual who mostly uses apple devices.

  • Most RJ-45 connectors (without a boot on them).. The connector only fits one way, the orientation is clear on both ends while holding, looking or even by feel if you have to do it blind and it locks into place easily. Only issue is how fragile the clocking part is, which boots are supposed to help protect but make more difficult to use.

    I like reversible connectors like lighting and USB-C but I find them too small and fragile in general and they are not very satisfying to connect.

    I have a special hate for connectors that are HARD to blind connect or even tell at a distance like USB-A, HDMI and Displayport which are ether rectangles or slightly not rectangles that are close enough that is hard to tell in the dark behind a device.

    I have a strong dislike for connectors with thumb screws, but like locking connectors like Centronics or as noted RJ11 or RJ45.
