You’ll be able to (among other things) open a merge request from another instance. Gitlab and other source forges require you to create an account on each instance you want to contribute to.
Pirates have known this for decades. Buy DRMed media means you can lose access to it at any time. And these subscription services that limit access for paid services e.g as soon as you travel, access to certain stuff is lost, sometimes the access to the entire service is lost. Additionally, for some reason, pirated stuff often has better quality than paid stuff - it’s something I cannot fathom.
It was possible to get pirated 4k stuff as soon as it was released years ago, but most paid services couldn’t provide that. The biggest reason being you couldn’t buffer it. It only buffers a few seconds and then stops. Pirated stuff can be downloaded ahead of time and watched without buffering on a shit connection.
Fuck Netflix. What I hated most about them was they decided during the pandemic that too many people were watching stuff at 1080p, so they dropped the quality of streams to 720p. Lol. A great way to get people to pirate.
The speeds are as fast (or slow) as the slowest member in the chain. If most people who participate have slow connections, then most of the times it’ll be slow. But if the majority uses fast connections, then most chains/tunnels will be fast.
Again, it’s a chicken and egg problem: people who want fast downloads (and thus have fast pipes) won’t participate because it’s slow, but in doing so, they miss a chance to be part of the solution.
After I got a good job, I started donating to FOSS projects. They have already proven to be useful, unlike other crowdfunded projects in the inception stage. My bill for software now exists for opensource software, whereas when Windows was my main OS, it was non-existent. I love the option to give money. That’s freedom.
Sure, but why aren’t those vendors certified? Is it a lack of action on the vendor’s part? Is it a monetary problem where Canonical is demanding too much money and thus gatekeeping smaller vendors with smaller pockets from being certified? what is it?
Yes (programming.dev)
