Thanks! I'll check with my vps provider.

However, this proxy does not seem to be "within" the tor network itself, right? I'm just connecting someone to the first entry node on the system, correct?

Would I be transmitting unencrypted data? In other words, would an outsider be able to tell that I'm transmitting something illegal to a person accessing tor?

Thanks! Would you be able to elaborate a bit more?

It was my understanding that this is not the same thing as running an exit node.

I love when tankies question the reliability of the witnesses, and then with the same breath post something from the Pyongyang Times.

No, it started that way? Do you mean started to be more all encompassing?

So, didn't the term come to describe people who support the USSR imperialist practices by rolling into countries with tanks?

Anyone who has researched the USSR enough to cut through capitalist propaganda knows Russia is now a neolib-ish bourgeois democracy.

Have you ever seen anything written by the average lemmy tankie? They will defend Russia because it's not the US.

If the US invades a middle eastern country because of "terrorists", the true motive is oil (which I don't disagree with). But if Russia invades Ukraine because they could potentially become a competitor petrol state in Europe more aligned with the EU, then it's actually "nazis".

No, I was suggesting that tankie came to describe USSR supporters (which modern apologists project onto Russia, as if the wall never fell). I am aware of the origin of the term.

My comment was a reply on people supporting whatever Russia and China do. It takes a jab at both.

Imagine thinking Chinese workers own the means of production, or not even knowing where the term "tankie" comes from.

Imagine defending Russian and Chinese imperialism because "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

That's true.

However, I feel like the ones from lemmygrad are slightly more unhinged.

I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy the tankies from lemmygrad denying or trying to justify this one as well. 🍿

I would imagine dampening how much of a boost old posts get would fix this issue.

It was also posted 2 years ago.

Ok I'll ask. What am I missing here?

Ubuntu or Linux mint are good options. There are other newbie friendly distros out there, but I only tried these 2.

Yes you can dual-boot. When you start your computer, it will show you a menu where you can choose between Linux or Windows.

I keep brave or chromium installed for cases like this (if I really have to access that website).

Regular use it's just Librewolf. No point in adding to the chrome's stats, and still sending data back to Google on top of that.

The non-mainstream social media options will always be the ones with people with more extreme political views (on both sides of the spectrum).

Lemmy has a great deal of tankies. They seem less prominent now, because the influx of people from Reddit diluted them.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Hope not.

Hosting videos is very expensive. It would probably make it unfeasible for regular people to host their own Lemmy instances.

Shout-out to Librewolf as well (basically Firefox with better privacy focused configs).

People don't care enough about using browsers that reduce Google's influence on web standards (i.e. non chrome-based browsers)

Tried searching it using my searxng instance, and I can still find it (still indexed by duckduckgo, yahoo and Alexandria).

Don't know if has been fixed, but I guess it's an argument for using metasearch engines: get some redundancy, don't rely on just one source.

Farmers seem to be underrepresented on the fediverse.
