                (Quote) As far as I know, USA can "pick" practically anyone, from any country, without any charges or trials (they've been doing that for a while now). Most other countries are basically limited to their own territory.

                (Quote) I would argue that Google is bad. But being afraid won't help you - unless you can live & conduct business without a smartphone, any social networ account, or card payments. If that's the case, then it does make a lot of sense to use a g…

                (Quote) That is exactly what I was trying to say (and show exactly how in the article I linked to). I use Gmail as a mail client (similarly to Thunderbird or some third client). Fast, reliable (storage), great antivirus (and antispam) filters... …

                (Quote) Gmail storage hasn't failed me for a single time since the time it was an invite-only service. And the storage space per account is quite generous (and free).

                POP3 with Gmail is what I use - with all its pros and cons. Relja

                My 2c: 1) https://uptime.gd/favicon.ico 2) Naked domains make baby Jesus cry. :) Best of luck with the project.

                (Quote) For what it's worth: WordPress.com and XenForo (to name a few) use that tactics - but with clearly visible nofollow links.

                I suppose it would be fair and reasonable to open a separate (off topic?) thread to discuss marketing tactics, and leave the offer thread without such comments - regardless of how one feels about the "bouble bandwidth" stuff. Relja FourHa…

                (Quote) Why this? (Image) Take it easy.

                (Quote) Yup - LES (and my websites for that matter) mostly refrains from politics. It creates arguments and problems, without solving anything or making anyone any wiser. Though I mean what I wrote there: freedom of speech should be protected - esp…

                (Quote) Plugin and theme “rollback” is planned for the 6.5 version: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2023/12/07/roadmap-to-6-5/

                (Quote) That's self-hosted. The .org can't possibly provide fast backup and restore resources for every damn "According to XYZ" shit on the Net. :)

                (Quote) You won't be /kəʊld/. Get it? :) LOL Off to laugh at my own joke...

                (Quote) Are you talking about WordPress .com?
 - 
                (Quote) See my post above about disabling auto updates and testing with a staging copy first. I would add that JetBackup offers a nice one-click restore option that has worked wonderfully for me so far (knock on wood).
 - 
                (Quote) Sure, but with the number of update blunders, it indeed would make sense to push them gradually, and catch any problems before a huge number of websites are affected. Though, I can think of one reason why they might refrain from that: Probl…

                (Quote) As far as I understand, you might be shooting yourself in the foot. I would suggest to make the link clearly visible to any humans, and have a rel=sponsored or rel=nofollow attribute. Just to be on the safe side and avoid any "Google p…
