I mean the stock layout genuinely did have my eyes tired though.
I got tired of maintaining (aka fighting npm)my little project, which I, the clanker, build, so I dropped it for a project maintained by other people that happen to finally integrate what I'm using in 2026
I want to hear more. i do know npm sucks and i hate having to deal with it for anything, including version hunting
I love it, but I think the great thing about having an old ass looking theme is that when it's dead as fuck then it just looks like an old site that people still use, rather than an updated site with a declining user base.
I would like an option to change the background like you can on whatsapp so I could put a big fat black phallus so people, like onlookers, would think I'm watching naughty stuff rather than simply nerding out.
I know I'm gonna get heat for it, but I don't mind the BetterLET layout OP made. I do prefer the Tampermonkey script, tho!
best use case ever.
Thanks for the kind words.
He made something as a passion project, and decided to share it with the community. If you don't like it, that's absolutely fine, constructive feedback good or bad is never a bad thing, but a lot of people in this thread (in my opinion) cross over into bullying, it's needless, you could've looked at it, decided it wasn't for you, and kept going about your day, but you decide comment and belittle someone for no good reason, and it's a common theme/trend here on LET, I enjoy keeping up with the goings on of hosts & the industry (like many others here), but it doesn't take long to find a thread much like this one where people are just being needlessly hateful.
Thank you, but no thank you, mr marketing expert, podcast producer, and AI-powered app developer.
It should be; I got tired 'so I let AI' built...
First day on LET?
Constructive feedback is very rare here, everything is bullying and trashtalk. It sucks, but it has always been that way.
You learn to sort trough it, or you move to the other forum.
Go home
Yeah I mean its mindless elitest toxic trash people as usual. Not sure I would expect much from a forum of people who get upset over $8 a month VPS deals that are oversold. The haters just hate their own lives, so they find other people to shit on where ever possible. No different than forums from when we were kids lol.
i like your BetterLET , i feel your extention is very good ! good job
nice dark mode, but not sure I need another chrome extension
heard that.
thanks fam.
looks great. just modify it to remove those right-sidebar ads. that will look clutter-free
Added that in latest version. ads on/off is in the gear icon drop down now.
I really like the design you've created. BetterLET V1 looks interesting and appealing to me and I'm genuinely interested in it. Great job on the design.
Considering the relatively modest and lightweight banner ads that we use to support our platform I'm not impressed by the decision to create a feature to hide them.
Can you reconsider that decision? @MakersHelpDesk
While they are lightweight by today's standard, they still advertise blatant scams. And by scam I don't mean "the company is shitty" but "the company patently lies about its capabilities". I'd recommend people hide them simply for safety.
I was going to agree until I realized you said "month". You do realize that $8/month is really expensive here and nets you a premium VPS, right? If you had said $8/year... I think you're in the wrong forum buddy.
We try to keep the advertisers relevant to the audience and our community. If you think there's an issue with one of the active advertisers send me a PM and let's talk about it
There have been a few threads about it. It's bmail and vp.net. Example: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/217558/bmail-confused/p1
@LEBUserJoe has more to say about it I'm sure.
Oh man that's a long post about Bmail. Too early for me this morning, hah.
By the way Bmail is not a current advertiser.
Same issues with vp.net. Blatant lies about their security capabilities. Not just marketing exaggerations, but lies (e.g. claiming that your IP doesn't even go through them because they use SGX, which is complete nonsense).
Hey there, I'm working on it. Want to make sure we stay within the rules.
Honestly Jbiloh terrible way to respond, literally many month's later just say "Not current advertiser" instead of acknowledging that they should of been removed X months ago because they are a false advertiser. - Reality check I warned you and staff months ago nothing happened most likely stolen thousands of $ from your users. That's on you after you fail to act.
But Forest hit money on the head, I mentioned vp.net many times too, they annnounce they are related on the landing page how can you say something so certain when they are taking advantage of you to your face.
FYI VP.net claims are total bogus too.
"20+
YEARS IN PRIVACY" - Released 1 year ago when he spam made projects with AI and paid you to steal from people.
Millions
USERS PROTECTED - Factually a lie same number since day 1 launch
I truly haven't got time to poke around at his Claude codebase for hours to prove a further point that his repo's that have 0 activity for 1 hour when entire codebase was made and uploaded by AI. But it's not secure.
I mean....
https://godissent.com
Every single of of this dudes projects, isn't just trash made by AI as AI wouldn't lie like this., it's done on purpose "godissent" does nothing but send you through cloduflare warp, already free. (yet this like to pretend, this is some insane technology they can only leverage don't mentioned WARP once.
They claim ' Cloudflare-fronted website" Lol. anything but the truth.
No reason they should be doing this for free anyways, until they update there ToS and add a proxy SDK into all apps, i put money on it seen it to many times
Joe, if you raised concerns about Bmail months ago and we didn’t act quickly enough, that's something I can look into. You clearly feel passionately about the service they provide and perhaps it makes sense for you contact them directly to discuss your concerns.
On VP.net or any other provider, if you believe a specific security, privacy or technical claim is false, I’d encourage you to raise the exact claim directly with the company and ask them to respond. If they give you an answer, post it here and let the community evaluate it.
LowEndTalk isn’t really in a position to become the arbiter of whether every technical or marketing claim made by every hosting company is correct. We can enforce our rules and look into specific evidence of misconduct, but ultimately providers need to stand behind their own claims and users should challenge them directly when something doesn’t add up.
Advertising with us also doesn’t protect anyone from criticism. Just keep the discussion tied to specific, verifiable facts rather than broad accusations.
Friend, I respect you.
But my thread was months ago and many many respected members here are shocked on how it was approved in the first place, that's what I want to know.
vp.net is actively advertising here with lies and lies. Takes me 20 seconds to prove it.
To then claim "Abuse detection? Use automated pattern matching and nullroute it, but don't inspect packets and, worse, don't map traffic back to user accounts."
^ They claim this requires no scanning of traffic, have you ever seen pattern matching work without the data to match? i'm sorry but who the F is in charge of approving this
LET has to be arbiter at some point, when there are valid directly provable claims on the home-page of the service itself, have you tried to contact them? Please give me the email they use on LET because i've sent messages to Bmail and VP months, no reply so what else do you suggest if both them and LET refuse to acknowledge the scam?
You cannot "stand" on your own claims, when it's a technical impossibility this is LET not the LOW IQ CLUB.
I'm starting to loose the respect i had for you, I will argue all day long and be a problem I only say such things because items like this hurt people. People here are buying into these claims not for months, for multi-year deals. It's not okay I don't care full stop. It's not one service these guys of 3-4 that I know about by LET alone that are straight scams. Why allow it?
When was the last time someone came to LET to complain about a cheap email service, or VPN service that wasnt a LET provider? almost never because it's not worth the hassle of care that's the reason u are not hearing it louder. Not that is not obvious friend.
This whole thing made me make my own version (userscript) in Opus 5.5 too
thanks for convincing to never even consider using it again
