Although JPEG XL was launched in 2021, Safari is the only browser to support it yet.

Correction: Pale Moon was first to release JPG-XL support in November of 2022 and has had it ever since.

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me five fucking million times...

Just test against modern Pale Moon as the common denominator. If it works there, it will work on everything else.

I am a professional web developer and I am 100% serious.

Building to Chromium is pure insanity.

As a friendly reminder, this is the current list of uBlockOrigin filters to completely remove all Shorts across all of YouTube (except if you click the Shorts tab).
I keep it up to date.

"Emoji" is bith singular and plural, like all nouns borrowed from Japanes (see "anime", "pokemon", "sushi", "samurai", etc.).
"Emojis" is not a word.

Not one of his best videos, but that just shows how good his typical videos are.

If it is a club web site, you could put it behind a membership wall that will reduce the traffic load to almost nothing. Also take a look at your sessions, if you are issuing any. Session overload is what brought my custom forum down a couple weeks ago. A complete session overhaul to make sure only logged in users were issued a session brought sesssion files down from 20k highs to less than 300. Guest users didn't actually need sessions, and single-requests from bots didn't need them either. CPU usage went down to unmeasurable at times whereas before it was 30% on average. RAM usage saw a smal drop as well.

And just as enforceable.

nginx isn't a MITM because it is the same "man". CloudFlare is a different "man". That is what makes it a man in the middle. As I said in another reply: Just because you allowed them in the middle on purpose, doesn't make it goodware. From the user's perspective, it is malware just the same. Same thing if you quietly offloaded user comms on the back-end to the NSA like the cell providers. This malware is simply on the front-end instead.

I didn't say it was a man in the middle attack. I said they were a man in the middle. Just because you allowed them in the middle on purpose, doesn't make it goodware. From the user's perspective, it is malware just the same. Same thing if you quietly offloaded user comms on the back-end to the NSA like the cell providers. This malware is simply on the front-end instead.

I'm not the person who claimed CloudFlare was malware, but I can easily give you justification as to why they are.

CloudFlare decrypts HTTPS traffic on the way to a server, then re-encrypts it before sending it on to the destination server. They are a man-in-the-middle.

As a user making an HTTPS request to a web server, I expect my request to reach that server exactly as-is. CloudFlare breaks this fundamental aspect of trust.

(That is without mentioning the gate-keeping bullshit they pull.)

No, you didn't have to.

There are plenty of alternatives to CloudFlare that are actually good at what they do.

Barring that, there are hosts that provide excellent, creative, and sometimes passive protection against DOS and bots while also giving you the tools to further build your own protection to that end. I've run a 10k+ user site with guest (non-login) features for 8+ years now with zero DOS attacks and bot behavior below the level of noise. I host with Nearly Free Speech, but there may be others like it.

Yes.

1) CloudFlare launches a DOS attack on your browser (and others), then ignores your communication, and only stops the attack only after a huge user outcry. Promises are made that this won't happen again.

2) 4 months pass and the exact same thing happens. Your bug reports and similar get completely ignored, the DOS attack only stops after a huge user outcry. Promises are made this should not and will not happen again. Your browser will be added to their test suite.

3) 6 months pass and they are DOS-ing you again. Your comms get tossed in the trash. A huge user outcry doesn't work this time. A full month goes by and bad media coverage finally brings CloudFlare to the able. They give you the run-around. 6week in and the DOS continues.

You're blaming the browser dev in all this? Calling them incompetent is being kind. Likely they are being malicious.
Fuck off.
