Re: Downvote bots. I can't say they're necessarily bots, but my instance has scripts that flag accounts that exclusively give out downvotes and then bans them. That's about the best I can do, at present, to counter those for my users.

It is usually not a good idea to specify what your exact metrics are for a ban. A bad actor could see that and then get around it by randomly upvoting something every now and then.

The same goes for pretty much everything in life, not just games. It might suck in the short term, but just don't put up with friends/partners/jobs you don't like. Make a change

There is also the risk of homograph attacks. The link below is for domain name encoding via IDN, but the same applies to usernames. You could easily impersonate another user by having chars that look similar.

Sure, but even if they started tomorrow it would probably be years before it even could be considered experimental outside of the most daring early adaptors.

Having a combability layer is not ideal but it would mean they could have something worker for more users faster and at the same time see which modules/drivers they should focus on.

What I meant was that if you are returning 404 for example when a user doesn't exist. You can't tell if the user doesn't exist or someone changed the API to remove the endpoint.

But forcing HTTP codes without a moment to think it through seems to be the new fad.

The clown, but flipped with a success field. If it is true then command succeeded, if it false something was wrong and there should be an error field as well.

HTTP codes should be used for the actual transport, not shoe-horned to fit the data. I know not everyone will agree with this, but we don't have to.

Rounded corners tho…

Just a small gif (as png didn't exist/widely supported) that had the rounded corner. Then if someone wanted to change the color or background you would have to redo all the images. Fun fun.

Sometimes they can be challenging or overgrown, so you have to know what you're doing and be prepared to turn back if necessary, but I owe a lot of truly incredible experiences to this app.

Since it uses OpenStreetMap you should consider updating it for others later. Don't think you can do it in Organic, but it can be as simple as in a browser adding a note to a trail about what state it is in.

Approximately at 2024-08-09 09:30 MFA had been removed for all users due to a mistake when MFA was intended to be reset for an individual user.

An UPDATE without a WHERE?

Must be some weird AI bug, because in defensive wars you almost always get your allies to join.
