And the wine! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc7HmhrgTuQ LES team is tirelessly working on building our own TLS authority and renewal service - and are already lobbying for it to become accepted, globally, since it wouldn't work otherwise. No mor…

(Quote) Money is just a tool to get more control (and surveilance), and resources, without people getting suspicious or resisting. It doesn’t really matter nor really exist for that matter (pun intended). LES stack choice won’t alter that outcome …

(Quote) CF is more than just CDN (LES isn't trying to sell stuff before you can think so that one second longer page load time makes anyone worried). It's also more than just a firewall. Especially around Black Friday madness thread(s). LOL :) …

(Quote) It's stll probably the least bad option for many things - despite the downsides. If memory serves me, at least once every year there's been a major CF outage - correct me if I'm wrong.
-
(Quote) Yup - it was practically forced upon users and webmasters alike - by Google (one, huge corporation).
-
(Quote) Even Bikegremlin had a short downtime! LOL :) Things break down, it's all normal. Though, when CF goes down, half of the whole Net seems to go down with it. :)

(Quote) NginX is for the poor! (Image)

(Quote) 2TB (when you click on the "STORAGE" button) is also offered for 280 €.

(Quote) Let me start by quoting my rant from October 2025: :) (Quote) My current on the MDDHosting's service, as I'm currently actively using the service: https://io.bikegremlin.com/30329/mddhosting-plaid-hosting-review/ Veerotech notes - also us…

(Quote) Similar doubts. Strong FOMO vibes - 100% yes. However, they are not pushing discounts to make more sales (and more total revenue), so they might be at least trying to keep the service profitable (not just take money and deadpool). Still, t…
-
(Quote) So if I understood correctly, there is no native S3 support, but a functioning workaround so to speak (because of the encryption - you must emulate an S3 gateway on your PC - which in turn "talks" to Filen, while your apps "ta…

Experienced virgins? No such thing. * Performance * Low cost * Quality You can only pick two. If you think you can pick all three, you are being screwed. So, if you can live with less fast support, or not the top performance (or some other downs…

(Quote) They also don't chagre extra for egress, while Hetzner Object storage which may be cheaper "on paper" will charge extra for that, and may end up being more expensive in total. Backblaze can be rather slow in my experience, so that…

Haven't listed them - that's true. I know a guy who's happy with it for years now (in terms of upload & download speed, & uptime). Could be the optimal choice. Depends on what you need the storage for.

(Quote) LOL. The free version using Rustdesk's infrastructure (no self-hosting install) is what I'm using and it seems to be working fine - for now (I expect it to follow Anydesk and Teamviewer once it becomes more popular).
-
(Quote) I have installed it on Windows 11, Linux Mint, and Ubuntu. Tried all the possible permutations to connect: Win-Win, Win-Mint, Win-Ubuntu, Ubuntu-Win... and so on - you get the idea. Also tried different networks (ISPs) - local and separated.…

Another bug that will bother the privacy-concerned folks: full ticket contents (along with replies) are visible to anyone who has the URL (no password protection, only URL obscurity). From what I could gather, Filen is aware of the problem, and tha…

(Quote) Very confusing (colour me dumb) - it says "Self hosting" all over the page, and no clear link to the "cloud" alternative (pricing also doesn't look much better compared to Anydesk): https://rustdesk.com/pricing/?lang=en …
-
So, RustDesk seems to be the general recommendation. I suppose I would need a VPS for it (won't run in a shared hosting account), correct? Do the non-tech-savvy clients (whose PCs I need to connect to) get an install to run ("next-next-yes-ye…

Discord bug report apparently came unnoticed since Saturday (despite the mention by a member there), while a public Reddit post from this morning got a response after a few hours: https://www.reddit.com/r/filen_io/comments/1oosbs5/why_are_filenio_i…

Not terminal, but "terminal green" is what I was aiming for - to make the bold text in my Obisidian editor & viewer stand out better: (Image)

(Quote) I've been using the service since April (2025). Within the first few days they had a long downtime (several hours if not more). Apart from that, I haven't noticed any problems - but I have noticed that their incident reports got redacted (s…

(Quote) So, they do redact their status pages? https://status.filen.io/

(Quote) As far as I could see, they were saying they will reduce and probably completely cut lifetime sales. Then, this summer, they posted about that this Black Friday may be the last lifetime sale, but that "starter" lifetime will probab…
