What is the threat szenario?
If you are smart about parallelization and have access to custom hardware, couldn’t you turn 5 days into 1 hour or less?

PHP has ben JITed for a while now too.
I don’t recall it being known as slow compared to python even before that.

The “BetterHelp” YouTube Virus is BACK

In markdown, there is the notation []() for links. Reddit allowed it too for examples, and generally a lot of programs and platforms that have mild text formatting use markdown.
[some text](https://example.org/some-link) will turn into some text

Lemmy has basically extended this with ![]() which shows the content of the link
 will turn into

Where did that “some text” go? It’s basically the placeholder for when the image is loading or failed to load, the correct term is the alt-text.

The image @[email protected] was asking about uses the text
![](https://ttrpg.network/pictrs/image/396cb01b-6b2b-4351-9cd5-0742c2914719.png)
It has no alt text. Any frontent that has an image upload button or similar will upload the image somewhere, take the link, and put it into your post like this.

I hope your frontend renders code-blocks and escapes with backslash (\) correctly, else this may look weird to you.

Nice

Electricians will deny this is true but then just make up a new word for it (inductance)

This really seemed like a good simplification until you threw in that d’Alembert operator at the end

Default linux works too ofc, I didn’t know they took that route.
Most other browsers have very specific useragents, so the main pool of same useragents will be hardened browsers anyway.

Thank you for checking

edit:

Try it with high security settings in tor, it might be something like canvas. Did you enable any permissions for the website?

That would be a fail of the fingerprinting protection. A properly set up TOR browser for example should not allow that detection by any means. If you know how to detect it, please report it as a critical vulnerability.

I could think of maybe some edge case behavior in webrenderer or js cavas etc., which would mainly expose info on the specific browser and underlying hardware, but that is all of course blocked of or fixed in hardened browsers.

Further, if you have a reliable method, you could sell it off to for example Netflix, who are trying to block higher resolutions for Linux browsers but are currently foiled by changing the useragent (if you have widevine set up).

That can’t have been the reason, rather the fact it could tell.
Your browser sends information about its version and the os in the useragent string. It is supposed to lie and say it is a very commonly used useragent, specifically for purposes of fingerprinting. That would be windows, default configuration, firefox version something not you firefox version

It appears they just did, as of a few minutes ago while I was looking into it

Here is the now open private components repo under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license
And I forked it just to be sure

On lineageOS 20 it records the exact android build string as the Software for me, so “Android lineage_pdx215-userdebug 13 TQ3A.230901.001 b30079afa2”. Which is probably enough to uniquely identify me, and you if you have a less common phone or are on an older or uncommon version.

Needless to say I am pissed.

With federation it’s kinda like complaining archive.org doesn’t have a good way to purge page snapshots in case you post something on your website you regret later. Or search engine caches. Or the local scammers replicating your page with curl for a phishing scam.

Yes, the deletion would have to be federated, there is no way to guarantee anything at that point. But as I understand OP this is about acting quickly, on an upload that isn’t even part of a post yet.

If I doxx myself on any service, someone can take a screenshot, it could be archived. But If I delete it before anyone sees it, there is a good chance it will never get out, if the primary platform properly removes it.

In boost I have a list of all my uploaded pictures, where I can delete them.

1.18.0 doesn’t show that for me, neither does 1.19.0

The version update notes said “removed because android doesn’t do that anymore” or something like that. It might depend on the android version, which is extra stupid because many roms don’t enforce that restriction, and you can mod that restriction out if you have root (which is part of many general root/lsposed modpacks).

I am running A13, but I was running A10 before and that didn’t show it either

In my experience that is quite rare though. Probably less than 10% of the downgrades you’ll do will actually not work.
On the other hand if the app has important data you want to preserve, the other ways of doing so are a) hunt down the apk manually, with the fdroid website not having a convenient download button for older versions, or b) use something like neo backup to make a backup, uninstall, install the older version, and revert the backup except the apk. Both are 1 minute for what could be one button press.

Edit: looking at the fdroid page the download buttons are there now, still you need to search up that page, it’ll probably still take a minute using that method. Why use fdroid if you need to google apks like a caveman in the end anyway?

Then make it an option in the experimental section of the settings.
If an app cannot accept the updated data, if it has even been launched in the new version, the worst that can happen is that it doesn’t work. You can still uninstall, or you can clear the data. You can also pop up a warning before downgrading, explaining the possibility of needing to clear the apps data.
It is still an essential feature for many.
Uninstalling and reinstalling is not only inconvenient, it can also change values like the apps id, that can be essential for advanced users.

For me, the app had an update that removed a feature I relied on without replacing it, making it worse as a result. This therefore makes a valid example to the point made above, that people may not enable automatic updates because updates aren’t always better, sometimes they make an app worse.
