Looks pretty abstract to me.

Some communities there have bots that comment on posts so people can up/downvote the bot comment to decide if the post fits the community, or if the relevance changed (e.g. in deals communities). The subreddit could use something like this, if they don’t already.

And if you make a meta post or the sort suggesting that or contesting the removal and they ban you, well, shows they don’t want you. So in such an outcome, feel free to post here on the fediverse, either/both in the general art communities, the weirdcore community if you think it fits, abstract art communities if you can find any, or on a community of your own creation for that.

Gazeta do Povo had a translation distributed for free. Maybe they still do?

Gonna make a post about it, but in line with identifying, with people reporting on their own findings in places like NeoDB (ActivityPub-compatible!), it creates a knowledge database. A wiki could be good too (and iirc there are AP-compatible wiki projects too), but it takes way more effort.

Would it be a publicly available page, or accessible only for you?

If it’s a public page, you could possibly host shareware games or with other licenses with a similar effect.

And there’s plenty of games you can legally buy as ROMs (e.g. homebrews on Itchio), games that include ROMs in their files (e.g. River City Girls 0 on Steam, most Neo Geo releases on PC platforms and pretty much any MS-DOS game rerelease), and if you’re from a region with laws not as draconian as the DMCA, there are games with ROMs embedded in their files and that can be extracted. So if it’s a private page, you could go for those too.

If you dumped the disc with an Wii, maybe the mismatch is due to the console being moody with some storage medias.

A while back, I tried an USB stick on it that I would later learn was making several parts of the console mod to misbehave. But when I tried to dump I think it was The Last Story to it, it generated a working dump, even if mismatching the expected hash.

Going by reports I’d see, people I see banned from Reddit mainly were either promoting alternatives or using VPNs.

And since I experienced my own account being silently banned when I tried to log in, being logged to a VPN at the moment I tried to do it despite never having a problem before, and I hadn’t used it since I learned about ActivityPub so no local comments about the fediverse, seems very likely to be the case.

That, or they’re monitoring people even when the user is away from their platform, which would be creepy at best.

I use Proton’s VPN.

Issues I’ve observed: timeouts and extra (sometimes excessive) “are you human” verifications, extra step on troubleshootings if a site doesn’t load properly or at all, sites load slower, connection may not even work when it’s morning in Russia and China or if the server is in a country being bombarded (e.g. Iran’s former allies) or possibly also going through some natural disaster, some sites may hardcode your VPN region to your account if you stay in a given IP too much (e.g. Crunchyroll), and some sites block VPN IPs they know about (e.g. Nijimiss.moe, part of the fediverse, and GameFAQS).

Out of curiosity, I counted how many my instance, despite being small, tracks or tracked at some point:

• 3 Italian ones
• 1 Brazilian
• 1 German (that allows English posts)
• 1 from Hexbear
• 1 derelict from a dead instance (kbin.social)
• 8 English ones (including the OP’s)

Maybe the new community is due to some drama? Though most of those are chill, and alternatives are aplenty if there are issues with some specific community.

That’s what I meant. Sorry if I sounded confusing.

And to @danio13@lemmy.world, hope your like your stay!

Also if you use microblogging platforms (e.g. Mastodon) and non-fediverse forums that don’t ban you for sneezing wrong and that have RSS feeds, might I suggest adding them to @birb@rss-parrot.net? Saves you having to manually go to each forum to see what’s new. =)

Afaik they ban based on VPN IP by default, even on old accounts (rip my account there), and even in the chance using VPN is legitimate. But if they actively say “we don’t want you”, my advice would be, don’t act like you’re begging to go back to an abusive relationship.

“This one’s calling me a redditor”

About the second point, I didn’t write it as well, so rephrasing it:

It’s the most used system due to sites, so it got quite wide due to scope. But desktop users from my experience are a bit more prone to making mistakes in their daily usage. So as another scope becomes prelevant, new issues arise, and the ones ignored or not seen start appearing. Also, hackers, either good or bad, would see a system becoming popular among mistake-prone users as a fertile ground for finding issues.

But again, that is considering the claim about having more issues is well-grounded.

Transparent code may make finding issues more easily, but it also makes fixing them more easily.

Also it’s the most used system used in the world due to sites most using it. So as more desktop users end up using it, problems server managers wouldn’t see or deem important now start appearing.

But also, that is considering the statement that security issues in Linux are more common. Are they though? Is it from some technical research, or gut feeling like thinking all airplanes are dangerous when one falls and there’s all the noise from the blood-hungry medias?

Not pro-cannabis myself, but on the overall issue about trigger-happy banning, if Reddit doesn’t want you, no use trying to please them. If anything, that move of theirs is an invitation for you to move more firmly to their competitors. Also I’ve seen some pro-cannabis groups and adjacent ones over the years.

Also, if you must warn of original issue, the one about the fake company, in major platforms, Twitter and Youtube aren’t as trigger-happy about bans.

Also a bit tangential, but maybe seek legal action, or at least a chargeback from your bank? 7k USD is by no means a small value.

If you fear takedowns, and if the musics you discuss are available officially and for free in places like Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Youtube, etc., maybe worth embedding from those? Youtube and Soundcloud have embedded players and Bandcamp from what I posted here on the fediverse appears to have an embedded player too, though only for songs you can listen for free, as previously said. Also ITunes and Ototoy have samples of musics they sell, ITunes’ being 30s long and Ototoy’s being 45s long iirc.
