I'm still trying to figure it out myself...

The Yggdrasil service is most certainly running. The Yggdrasil service is using my own network node/peer for connections, and the other site(s) that use it load without issue. (And RAMBLE was working fine after setting it all back up).

Sure is a head scratcher... Not quite sure why it was working and is no longer working now. I'll review it further as I have more time.

Thanks; I think the same has been happening to me. It doesn't make sense that my pwd manager or I screw up only when handling a few reddit passwords. Maybe I can get back in to my accounts (also compartmentalizing a few interests that reddit doesn't deserve to correlate and track). The particular accounts I am having trouble with were created and now used on the clearnet with a vpn. I still use uMatrix and hope I can remember/find how to shut down javascript to get logged in again.

It's been awhile, but you reminded me to try switching back to "new" (dog shit) reddit to get logged in over Tor. From memory, it might also help during signup. I agree, reddit is a really shitty hassle to use and maintain some basic privacy. What's the best way for one to track the development of increasing, sustaining traffic and new subs at Ramble (grouped list of all f/subRamble's with traffic stats)?

@takeheart, If I understand you correctly, you suggest that one should create a reddit account using Tor and only ever use the account with Tor for privacy and anonymity. At the other end of the spectrum, any two or more accounts on the clearnet without a vpn can be easily associated together and with the IP. A vpn would protect the IP somewhat, but traffic correlation from the vpn servers can link separate accounts, and the user is often de-anonymized.

Would it be helpful to make a subRamble and share some throwaway reddit accounts with passwords to fuzz-up reddit's data? Sometimes it's nice to have option to make a quick comment, answer, or question that doesn't merit reddit's invasive registration and tracking. We could make a group for Tor accounts and maybe another group for vpn accounts.

Alternatively, you can use regex and redirect ^(http|https)://(?:www.)reddit.com(.*) to https://teddit.net$2, https://libredd.it$2 (what I use), or https://kddit.kalli.st$2 (what I used) (note that you need the Redirector addon)

None of those actually good reddit frontends support logging in, but since most of reddit is BS, you shouldn't care (and I don't have a reddit account any more either). Although, what do you mean by:

unless you made your account through tor, your manipulations are meaningless

— do you mean that you can log into your reddit account if you made it over Tor, or if that it doesn't matter if you log in over Tor if you created your account over Tor? Probably the first one, but I don't know.

I agree that people taking any of them at this point are like lab rats. They were only given FDA emergency authorization not approval. I'm going to wait for FDA approval at least, if I take one at all. But just because Astrazeneca are using a virus that usually infects chimps as a vector doesn't mean that there's a risk of chimp genes being transmitted. Lots of viruses that infect humans were originally spreading in animals before jumping to humans.

I've heard less bad things about Sputnik V, and I think I'd rather get that one than the others available now, but both Sputnik and AstraZeneca are similar in that they are both viral vector vaccines, which is a relatively new technology. Not totally new like the mRNA vaccines. The technology has been used for Ebola vaccines before at least

Maybe I'll eventually get Covaxin. As far as I know, that is the only traditional vaccine for this virus which is simply made with dead coronavirus. But Sputnik would be my second choice if I was living in some country that was allied or at least friendly with Russia.

I mean, it'd just fallover to a backup location Aside from some small outages, it'd have no real major impact on the availability of the interent and websites and the greatest impact would be obviously the potential loss of life in such an attack.

Now, backhoes, scuba gear and fiber lines is another story if internet infrastructure disruption is a goal... It'd all get replaced / patched eventually but it'd still fuck shit up for a while.

What and idiot. They realize there are no logical precautions being taking the slow the spread of this. Yet still they trust these doctors to administer a safe and effective vaccine. There is plenty of anecdotal evidence from states like FL and TX indicating the lock downs and mask mandates do work. The headline is true. Doctors don't seem to care if they kill their patients, so why would you take their advice in regards to the vaccine?
