(Quote) True - every year I look back on myself and realise how stupid I was. :) (Image) Regarding my expertise - it's realistic to say I'm an experienced user, but not a (real) developer. I aim to keep it that way. :)

(Quote) No rush. As far as I figure, you are not likely to benefit from reading it. The only potential benefit could come for any novice readers (including myself :) ) if you provide some additions or corrections. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v…

(Quote) Thanks. :) I've added a note about backups and image optimization. WordPress 6.0 is still in beta (to be released at the end of this month)?
-
(Quote) Every solution has its pros and cons. Correct me if I'm wrong: WP2static with Cloudflare workers is a bit of a steeper learning curve for beginners, especially if they wish to have website comments, or run a WooCommerce webshop. The a…

(Quote) All very good points. Thank you. :) With that in mind: 1) I've edited the article by adding a more "explicit" link to my article explaining what a vCPU is. The article was already linked to from a table, but that's mor…

Prices go up, currencies go down, pays remain more-less the same. The way things are going, I'm happy as long as Serbia doesn't win the next Eurovision. :)

Here's a list of my videos, sorted by topics (most are bicycle-related, but there are some computer-related). Here are the latest (and greatest) videos. :) If that English is good enough for you, read on. :) Potential problems I've got…

(Quote) Correct me if I'm wrong, but HostBill system requirements look rather standard, i.e. should work on a basic shared/reseller hosting stack. VPS makes sense if you need some "exotic" system setup. In terms of power, I don'…
-
(Quote) I agree. It's just worth noting: Check your hardware resource needs. Some reseller hosting providers allow you to tune those (Brixly, HostMantis, KnownHost and MDDHosting as of recently - to note a few). Others have set limits per a cr…
-
(Quote) Good points. Still, I don't like being "that guy" if you understand what I mean (I don't mean, nor imply the OP).
-
(Quote) I think that's good. It can be argued that this allows for better resource usage - closer to optimal. For example: I can create accounts on my reseller hosting, providing say 5 GB of storage for each (overselling practically). That pro…
-
(Quote) Twitter is censored, that's a fact. That's a dangerous thing to do with what is in practice and in fact a public service (privately owned, but public nonetheless). For example, I think abortion should be legal, while 16-spoked bik…
-
(Quote) Yup. :( It makes perfect sense in capitalism to force us to get new PSUs (and computer cases for that matter, though for now that part is still not inevitable, ATX 3.0 should fit the existing housings). I expect the new standard to not re…
-
(Quote) More power - sure, I guess. But the way it seems to be implemented - doesn't sound promising, as in "not problem-prone." If the article is correct.
-
Still suspended (LOL): https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump Nothing to see, carry on... :)

(Quote) I thought they be payin' you!? They ought to! :)
-
(Quote) I've tried a few other options, and in terms of uptime no one was better (so far), while regarding performance, Brixly was just a tad better (but had some other hiccups so it's not a good match for me). Tried even some more expens…

(Quote) I'm interested in finding a good alternative. DirectAdmin reseller hosting, preferably UK, or US-East coast location.

If it's of any help, this is my advertising and guest-posting policy: https://bike.bikegremlin.com/links-to-your-website-and-advertising/ It's allowed me to remain as independent and as objective as possible, without preventing me from ac…

Our local cycling forum has a "points" system (pluses, like likes). A vast majority of people with a lot of points are long-time members, knowledgeable and experienced. For new members, I suppose it gives some idea when asking for help o…

(Quote) We'll see. Doesn't fit my long-term plans for now. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DK4Q9J01FQs
-
(Quote) Yup - exactly. www. and the naked domain should redirect to forum. or something similar. Preferably with a 302, in case you make other stuff with the domain. I'm not very smart, it's just that I've been there, made that mista…
-
(Quote) Yup, ditching WP makes sense. Just - the naked domain is potentially less flexible IMO. If forum is going to be it, I'd still suggest making it www. Though, I think it's even better to have a www. landing page with a link, or a (…
-
I'd suggest making the forum on either www, or forum. subdomain. And installing WP on a separate (sub)domain (though, if I got it right, you ditched the WP and use forum for that now?). More sturdy in the long run. Redirects are working fine s…

(Quote) Using Linux Mint mostly. But yes, later Windows versions do have that sorted out quite decently out of the box if memory serves me correctly. Never used Mac - it's for the (wanna be) rich people. :)

For me, f.lux beats any dark mode and similar (tastes and eyes differ, so your preference may not be the same): https://justgetflux.com/

(Quote) To make matters even more complicated: even with a written request/boss-order/legal-dept.-approval, you may not be legally allowed to infringe a person's privacy - double-check with a competent lawyer.
-
(Quote) I see. Yes, makes sense. Even though the problems did occur after an update (i.e. I haven't changed anything else), sometimes it helps re-checking all the settings and excluding stuff from caching. Will see what LS support says (if anyt…

(Quote) Where, how? Edit: what are the consequences of that choice?
