  • I think the OP is looking for a decentralized alternative to something like Nord/Express/Mullvad to hide their traffic, and not a way to connect their devices together.

    exactly! Sorry if i didn't write that clearly in the post.

  • Yeah I was thinking of TOR when I read about the concept, but I did read a lot in the past how a lot of the nodes aren't really secure anymore.
    I'll check out the other suggestions. The sidebar doesn't mention piracy, so I'll just come out the gate and say that that's my usecase via torrents.
    Which can get pretty expensive where I live due to absurd legal definitions. My thought process was if a P2P VPN gets me through another country where it's not persecuted as much I'd be safer than going with the proprietary big names.

  • Used to play blacklight retribution, a f2p shooter. After grinding most of the things i wanted, i ended up paying 10 bucks to unlock a cool helmet and some "shortcut credits" to unlock a few other cosmetics i didnt wanna grind for.

    Game is dead nowadays sadly, but they had a great system (for the players)

  • Oh for sure, i'm just saying a 3.5kg one is on the upper end of usable. I've used one a good bit lighter than that and one slightly heavier and the heavy one was a BEAST to maneuver.
    This one is under 2kg for example: https://sigiforge.com/products/sigi-montante/
    Regenyei sells one aka "The Beast" at 3.6kg as their heaviest offer: https://regenyei.com/product/two-handed-sword-01/

    Once you go past that it gets so difficult to weild effectively - depending on your weight, strength and size of course.

  • if you feel the need to correct everyone then that’s kinda a you issue

    True but also unhelpful imo. That's how social networks took hold, right. it's really hard to not voice your opinion if you see it (esp. unfairly) opposed.
    I'm doing it right now, fully aware of it. I think it can lead to really productive interactions, just not with these types the OP describes.

  • It would not last even a week until I got into my first argument with a tankie. I saw them and argued with them from time to time on reddit, but people there usually saw right through the bullshit and downvoted them to oblivion.

    I just had one of these interactions. The whole thread was like that.
    I still enjoy the platform, but you gotta be very selective with whom you choose to engage.
    Absolute insane trolling, fighting the sources not the arguments, then sharing archived banned tweets as their sources :D There's no winning.
    The only upside so far is that the right wing nuts seem to be rarer here, but tankies are the same thing with a different flavor.

  • The longsword second from the bottom seems pretty heavy for that profile tbh. Montante/Zweihänder (last one) is also on the upper end of usable weight. Bordering on ceremonial/parade sword
