This should help us cut down on the trolls. We recommend other instances do the same, because they will likely be targeted also.

I apologize for all their gore-posts as well, no one should have to see that. We'll try to look for more admins from different time-zones as well to get them faster.

The two other possibilities we have currently as options, are turning on required email verification, and as a last resort, closing signups. I personally would rather not do either, but they are options.

Many thanks to @[email protected] and @[email protected] for banning those trolls.

I am not going to hear opinions from a VPN seller on Tor onion network. This is just bad. Moreover, CactusVPN is nowhere near a reputed VPN provider.

Certainly Chromium is made by Google, but as OpenSource, the script can be modified, well as degoogled Chromium or let the user decide which Google APIs need and which not in the settings, as Vivaldi do

Likewise Firefox has no issues, and user.js functionality does not exist in other browsers. Therefore, no hardening is possible on those, and Manifest V3 implementation ensures gorhill's recommendation is true.

Gecko use them, but you have to modify the script to eliminate it, in Vivaldi you can do it in the settings or at least in flags

This is false. Vivaldi cannot be hardened.

Privacy and security has nothing to do if te product is FOSS or not

This is BAD. I will prefer stopping the discussion here. This is straight up GrapheneOS community tier reasoning.
