Nah because if you type in your password it will show as stars.

I downvoted the beans and I don't care who knows about it. I'd do it again.
This is useful to know though, thanks. I guess assume everything is public short of your password (unless your admin is particularly nefarious and has altered the code to store passwords in plaintext for some reason).
I thought this was going to be about beans. 😕

Relate to this? Buy two single duvets. Saved my marriage.
This makes total sense, but will you be revisiting this limit? Maybe when you meet a certain donation threshold? Unless mobile apps build in native support for using external image hosts using an external host will always be difficult for mobile users. Thanks.
Lots of good answers in this thread but I haven't seen anyone mention this one yet:
Spec Ops: The Line
Got me right in the feels. That scene, obviously, but I can remember plenty more moments too even though I only played it once when it was new and never since. No spoilers here but if you can put up with the (I think deliberately) generic third-person shooter mechanics it's worth your time. Also note the strangely muted tone in the Zero Punctuation review because I think it got him in the feels too. It's a fine game but it was a great experience.
Yeah it does kinda matter, which is problematic for onboarding new users. Personally:
- I read the rules/TOS.
- I checked the Instances page to make sure instances I wanted to access were linked and not blocked.
- I looked for any introduction posts to see what the backend infrastructure was like.
- I checked the username I wanted was available.
It should not be that complicated, but it also has to be unfortunately. I had to make sure all those things matched what I personally wanted. This much choice is great for heavily-invested tech nerds with free time but sucks for anyone else wanting to join in.
Yeah. I run my own FreshRSS server and use FeedMe to access it. It's mostly just a bunch of UK newspapers and tech news sites because I realised I was getting all my news from Twitter and I wanted to cut back my use of Twitter. It's fine. The great thing about getting my news from social media was that I'd follow a load of people with similar interests to me so I'd mostly just see articles that interested me regardless of the source. Now it takes more scrolling to get past the articles I don't care about to find the ones I want to read. It means I get a broader overview of news that isn't effectively curated for me, either by other people or by algorithm, but it's not as engaging. It is the right choice though if you're looking to see more outside of what you're usually shown, as you say.
It worked! It might not look like stars to you because it's your password.
