> Do you want a VPS provider that ignores copyright complaints?
Yes, familymoviedb.com. It's a side project. Have not had any copyright complaints so far. The question at hand here is completely unrelated...
Essentially just looking to have my own VPN and not have to rely on a VPN-as-a-service (e.g. ExpressVPN, SurfSharkVPN, Mullvad, etc, etc).
Thanks for the recommendations! I've added them to my list of considerations...
Having anonymous login and crypto as a payment option seems it would go a long way here...
Which VPS providers can you suggest that work well for running private VPNs (for proxying internet traffic)?CRITERIA- Affordable :: Relatively, at least on par with the better VPN services.. no more than $10-$15/month- Worry-free bandwidth allowance :: Not necessarily "unlimited" but enough to prevent worrying about running out- No/Fewest privacy concerns :: Business and server location should...
Even if it already exists but there are things about it that annoy you (and others), build a better version (competitor).
Curious also if there's any practical approach for this (guessing there's not).

Coming from Netlify/Vercel/etc this seems like it could be a better option.
Working on a side project: Family Movie DB (familymoviedb.com)Currently it's a simple static site (built with Astro) served via Cloudflare Pages.The next phase of the project is to add user accounts to support the following:- Staring a movie- Marking a movie as "watched"- Creating movie lists- Customizing the weights used for the site's scoring algo (the "FMDb score") (because some families...
Recently learned about https://www.convex.dev/ which seems worth consideration.
I've seen lots of bad PR for Cloudflare recently (at least on YouTube and X). Seems to be related to poor-form sales tactics (lure in users for cheap and later require they up their plan or close their account). And indeed, the stories I'm seeing are pretty shocking and certainly hurt my perception of the company.This is seriously making me reconsider Cloudflare as the primary service I use...

Greetings, Jay here.This was a side experiment.Primary goals:1. Test using MidJourney for website image creation2. Test using ChatGPT for data creation3. Determine the best breed for my family's first dogAI pain points:- Getting MidJourney to create similarly-styled images- Hitting usage limits with GPT 4 (created it when they were much less generous than now)Created a year ago (April 2023)....
It's always been something i've felt like i'd benefit from but have never found an app/workflow that works for me.
Personally they drive me nuts. Especially the "exit intent" popups. If I want to close my tab, don't try to stop me (right?).Consider the real-world equivalent... You're in a store, decide to leave, start to push open the door, someone slams it shut (preventing you from leaving), then they start waving a coupon in your face and blathering all sorts of marketing talk. How would you react?Why is...
I see:
- Material Ocean Next
- Ocean Next Extended
- React Ocean Next Extended
- React Ocean Next Extended - Italic
But no standalone "Ocean Next"
Oh, nice. Will be testing out this one.

Oh, interesting. Do you find that it takes a period of time after switching before your eyes become accustomed to the change (from a quick-code-readability perspective)?
> Some themes work better with one language than the other.
Yeah, this is the most annoying part for me.

I remember reading a post a long time ago praising the benefits of not using syntax highlighting while coding (I'm not sure, but it may have been this one: https://www.linusakesson.net/programming/syntaxhighlighting/). Not sure if I could ever get used to not having syntax highlighting, but so much of what I like/dislike about themes revolves around syntax highlighting... perhaps it's worth testing for a period of time with syntax highlighting disabling (I assume this is even possible?).
