Used them before, but you have to be kinda careful with Amcrest, every once in awhile they throw one out that is especially shitty to self host.

I kinda get it as a policy decision. I don't like it, but I understand the risk and I can empathize.

What really bugs me though is this announcement right here and then it just... didn't happen. It feels kind of dishonest to have a big announcement welcoming them back and then nothing comparative saying that they apparently changed their minds immediately. Feels like there should at least be an edit/addendum to this announcement being like 'psych, fingers crossed!'. Trying to defuse with humor, I do know any statement would invite discontent from the userbase, but I feel like the complete lack of one kind of kills our trust in the admins here even more.

It's real confusing.

They state that they've done this right there, but it seems like there might have been a miscommunication somewhere and doesn't look like anyone ever actually got around to removing the block at a technical level. Both piracy communities are still currently blocked on lemmy.world a year later.

Every once in awhile some official somewhere is just like... fuck, I don't get paid enough for this and just moves on. The 1% with a singular success story holds up the entire community.

Rhymes don't matter if it's a polar bear.

I feel like PED use is a better indicator here unfortunately.

It's a bit hard to judge by the top competitors.

Boo, that's far more complicated than popping a pill once a day.
