Does it have any ability to get an "all" feed or a combined RSS feed? For example, I can use https://sh.itjust.works/feeds/all.xml?sort=TopDay to get the top items for the day.

I have some URL endpoints that I think might work but I'm getting a "your account is too new for this" error on some that I'm trying on quokk.au.

Does piefed have RSS? That's my primary way of getting content from lemmy right now.

That's where I remember it from.

This makes me feel very old.

Windows XP era? Excuse me? It goes all the way back to Windows 95. The original game by Maxis is even older.

Talk about exactly what you did to bypass it!

They're likely not fake; odds are there are loads of people who will buy this product and never have an issue. The problem is that some small percentage will experience catastrophic loss, and who wants to roll those dice?

In the US we call them "tea candles" and I only now realized why.

I've been running my own mail server since ~2002. For many years I was using qmail, of all things, on a home ISP connection. I wrote a semi-popular guide on adding spamassassin support to qmail. I was a true believer!

When hosting email from consumer internet became untenable, I migrated to digitalocean and Mail-in-a-box. To be honest, it's worth the $15 to have a 100% always-on device hosting the email. I host lots of other stuff at home and having email be a separate thing makes it much easier.

I've been running my own mail server using Mail-in-a-box on a digitalocean VPS for about 10 years. I also pay for an external SMTP relay service because I still get randomly blocked by Google/Microsoft/whatever just by virtue of having a digitalocean IP.

Total cost is $15/mo for the VPS and $50/yr for the relay service.
