  Yes, seems you are right. Not sure where I got the impression.

  Unrelated, when I researched this I saw that acme.sh, zerossl, and a bunch of other acme clients are owned by the same entity, “Stack Holdings”/“apilayer.com”. According to this, zerossl also has some limitations over letsencrypt in account requirements and limits on free certificates.

  By using ZeroSSL’s ACME feature, you will be able to generate an unlimited amount of 90-day SSL certificates at no charge, also supporting multi-domain certificates and wildcards. Each certificate you create will be stored in your ZeroSSL account.

  It is suspicious that they impose so many restrictions then wave most on the acme api, where they presumably could not compete otherwise. On their gui they allow only 3 certificates and don’t allow multi-domain at all. Then even in the acme client they somehow push an account into the process.

  […] for using our ACME service you have to create and use EAB (External Account Binding) credentials within your ZeroSSL dashboard.

  EAB credentials are limited to a maximum per user/per day. [This might be for creating them, not uses per credential, unsure how to interpret this.]

  This all does make me slightly worry this block around apilayer.com will fall before letsencrypt does.

  Other than letsencrypt and zerossl, this page also lists no other full equivalents for what letsencrypt does.

  They don’t offer wildcard certs, but otherwise I think they are.
  I wanna say acme.sh defaults to them.

  There is a sub for sanity checking mod actions, aita-style.
  If you keep in mind it is for active unconfirmed situations, and that votes there are not meant to mark the cases of mod abuse, I think it can fill that niche.

  which also references an effort to use the media to quietly disseminate Google’s point of view about unionized tech workplaces.

  Bogas’ order references an effort by Google executives, including corporate counsel Christina Latta, to “find a ‘respected voice to publish an op-ed outlining what a unionized tech workplace would look like,” and urging employees of Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, and Google not to unionize.

  in an internal message Google human resources director Kara Silverstein told Latta that she liked the idea, “but that it should be done so that there ‘would be no fingerprints and not Google specific.’”

  From the article posted by 100_kg_90_de_belin.

  Google seemingly does care about their internal image, so they will only make their actions obvious when they fire you for bogus reasons after wanting to join a union.
  Quite nasty in that they give you no hints about how extreme their efforts on this are. They monitor internal employee tools like they are cosplaying the NSA, but you wouldn’t know before you are fired out of the blue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Instance admins, how much does it cost you to run your instance? How much does that represent per active user?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can compare total better than per user at these scales.
  Lemmy needs a certain amount of performance to keep up with federation, but once you have all the images and posts and comments you don’t need second versions until you scale to a size that mandates multiple machines. Which I would guess is more in the 6+ digit user range, where you start averaging requests per second not minute.

  In some sense, every lemmy user is a user of your instance via federation. You need to pay the performance for all 100k of us whether your instance has 10 or 10k of those. Local users are just a bit extra demanding on your hosting resources.

  I suspect the bias we see here with larger instances paying a bit more (50-ish instead of 10-ish) is more due to reliability and snappyness than actual performance needs too. As in you don’t have to you just can be bigger, so you tend to get some of the smaller pricier perks you might not go for for a smaller instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That isn’t really going out of your way, it is the base mode of how the fediverse works. Looking at something on a different instance.
  Plenty of people just use mbin and see this, without any action at all.
  The point is that as it stands right now, there are already basically no restrictions. The only thing perhaps missing is the knowledge that you can simply copy paste a link into fedia or another mbin instance to view upvotes.

  You can open an issue on mbin about it, to restore a semblance of restriction. But currently as it stands, all restrictions are about as fallen as they could be.

  You can ofc argue that we shouldn’t open another equivalent hole in lemmys webui and api, so that you can in the future remove the ability from mbin.

  I would in turn argue that this system has always been egregious, and that in the same sense as banning encryption you never hit those you want to hit using incomplete restrictions. Regular users are led to believe their votes are private, while the worst dataminers or trolls will always have their instances to query all of that info.
  And how could you inform people that their votes are public without at the same time telling them how to get access to that info?

  If mbin removes the info, you will get another fediverse software showing it. You will get fediverse activity pub log info pages, specific vote info pages, it will never end.
  Has reddit ever managed to kill the 200ᵗʰ removeddit clone?

  Please instead put your effort into changing the way lemmy federates, the only way to fix this is to make vote details private, between only a select few instances. An mbin dev in the other thread mentioned PeerTube as an example implementation where you could remove vote details like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Your world does not correspond to reality given that mbin already shows individual votes.

  Head over to your comment on fedia.io and see who voted on your own comment.

  Do you want to only vote on instances that defederate all mbin instances, and commit to keep doing so in the future?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So the technical-skill-bar is transforming a lemmy link into the equivalent on an mbin instance? That is huge.

  I think plastid is the generic term for that organelle family and chloroplasts are plastids specialized for photosynthesis.

  And since people won’t use the website, the website won’t use the list. So the list would be useless.
  The maintainer seems to have followed the same interpretation, weighing legitimate use against spam use. This is the official response to the issue as of 8h ago:

  Dear Contributors,

  We value your suggestions for expanding our list of disposable email providers. Your input is crucial in enhancing our tool’s capabilities.

  Decision on Gmail and ProtonMail Inclusion

  After thorough evaluation, we have resolved not to include Gmail and ProtonMail in our list. Our rationale is based on the following technical and operational considerations:

  1. **Reputation and Reliability**
     
     * **Gmail and ProtonMail**: Established, reputable providers with a high trust level for personal and professional communication.
     * **Distinction**: Unlike typical disposable email services, they offer long-term, reliable email solutions.
  
  2. **Active Abuse and Spam Prevention Mechanisms**
     
     * **Effective Systems**: Both providers have robust mechanisms to detect and mitigate abuse and spam.
     * **Proactive Monitoring**: Ensures a secure email environment, reducing the prevalence of malicious activities.
  
  3. **Commercial Intent of Typical Disposable Email Providers**
     
     * **Focus**: Targeting providers driven by ad revenue, facilitating spam/abuse.
     * **Gmail and ProtonMail's Model**: User-centric, not primarily ad-driven.
  
  4. **Domain Limitations**
     
     * **Effectiveness**: Limited domain offerings by Gmail and ProtonMail make them less susceptible to misuse.
     * **Strategy**: Focusing on providers with extensive, rotating domain lists for more impactful filtering.
  
  5. **Individual User Accountability**
     
     * **Accountability Measures**: Both services have mechanisms to penalize users violating terms, decreasing misuse risks.
  

  Summary and Next Steps

  Including Gmail and ProtonMail does not align with our criteria for identifying disposable email services. Our aim is to target services significantly contributing to online spam and abuse, without impacting legitimate email services. We have reviewed your list and agree on adding some providers, like internxt.com (Reference). We will also incorporate the obvious choices from the tail of your list. We apologize for the delay in addressing this issue but intend to promptly resolve it by focusing on the most impactful additions.
