and you believe him ?

I am a bit skeptical. This page has 21 posts, and 5 of them are from him (you) already. Thats 23% of the posts on this page by you. Thats a pretty good rate to move up the charts quickly if it can be sustained. Comes out to almost 8 posts per page. In another 100 pages which should be about 1 day... you'll be up to 800 posts Good luck!

Well you won't believe if i say me and frankie once did some 3K posts in a day idk why. Blame frankie he is overly competitive.

and it was such a good day. It was really fun watching to clock tick down so we did not get the spam limit timeout for 19 hours straight. Good times!

So whats stopping people from just posting random quotes/facts about racknerd this time around? Is there a ban hammer ready to be dropped? Despite how crazy this thread is.. It is a lot more tame than I would have imagined it would be

If nobody starts that stuff again it would be fine with me. There is no rule against it, but lets not go there...... yet.

I don't think doing it again is any good just let it be meaningful and not mess up the entirety again.

Arc browser is somewhat weird. (coming from a beta tester who tested the browser for mac) Why isn't there a better rendering engine, like way faster than we have for years.

Is that the one that requires windows 11? My PC is too old for that trendy browser. It looks cool though

not so cool, already used too many chromium based browser apart from UI everything is same, it's just dressing up to present it as different. Edge does it too, so every other chromium based browser.

I've seen a lot of hype around it from Mac users, and when they released it for Windows, the excitement increased even more. That's all I know about it. What do you currently use?

Firefox + chrome on windows and safari + opera gx on mac, gnome web + firefox on linux. Firefox + chrome on android. Oh and Safari + opera gx on iphone.

I haven't used opera for years, you got me curious I'm downloading it now!

I was using opera for a while but I got tired of the ads, something on their default landing. I cant really remember now at this point. I've recently switched to brave and its been good. I did enable the ads for their "crypto" currency. No idea what balance im at or if its even worth anything...
It seems you just need to jump browsers every once in a while as one of them starts to fill with bloat. I've gone from Firefox->Opera->Opera GX->Brave

Firefox for me never been bloaty, working perfectly fine since 2016 with occasionally clean-ups to clear out dead cache,

And just because the page closed out, the iron out those stats a little more... we ended page 162 with 9 posts by FrankZ which puts him nicely at 30% of the posts per page meaning thats an extra 100 posts by the time we get another 100 pages. That comes out to 900 posts! Good luck all

That's plenty of OSs and devices, wasn't Arc browser hacked not long ago?

don't remember tested for a month or so in beta, reinstalled yesterday, uninstalled today.

good decision.

I once tested opera neon and servo(i don't remember if it is the right one) and man they were fast like vroom.

how did you use both together?

Together with two screens, obviously well technically i have two PCs one main workstation which i use almost all the time next i have an AIO installed with some weird linux distros(more than 5) mainly use elementaryOS now. next is my macbook air(not technically mine but still have access for most of the day).

It seems you just need to jump browsers every once in a while as one of them starts to fill with bloat. I've gone from Firefox->Opera->Opera GX->Brave

I appreciate Brave's features, but I don't block ads, which is why it's not my favorite browser. People put in a lot of effort to earn those small AdSense profits, and we enjoy their content from the comfort of our sofas without giving anything back in return. It's just not morally ethical to me.

on serious note, anyone got that DA storage deal from hostbrr? need reviews honestly.

Have that 500gb storage box. At the moment it's choked from other users uploading and running yabs. But will probably improve over time.

really? like really choked, bandwidth is messed up IOPS as well?

Both bandwidth and IOPS have taken a hit. The provider mentioned they have made some changes and optimizations, should improve gradually.

If improved let me know that results it might not be that late to grab one. btw the storage is dedicated right? right?

Will keep you posted. It's a shared server with each user with their own home directory.

I like the idea of the crypto currency "kick backs" to get ads visible again. Ads are not horrible, I get the reason they exist, its just that people abused it and you end up with a lot of nasty sites because of it. The currency kick back is a nice way to also acknowledge that yes it is really inconvenient some times to be inundated with ads but at least the end user gets something out of it too.

not always, most of time one needs adblock is cause there are disruptive ads ruining the experience. And instead of a browser based adblock using a dns based one is great with whitelisting googleads, media, and some other non disruptive ones.

I was using opera for a while but I got tired of the ads, something on their default landing. I cant really remember now at this point. I've recently switched to brave and its been good. I did enable the ads for their "crypto" currency. No idea what balance im at or if its even worth anything...
It seems you just need to jump browsers every once in a while as one of them starts to fill with bloat. I've gone from Firefox->Opera->Opera GX->Brave

I appreciate Brave's features, but I don't block ads, which is why it's not my favorite browser. People put in a lot of effort to earn those small AdSense profits, and we enjoy their content from the comfort of our sofas without giving anything back in return. It's just not morally ethical to me.

not always, most of time one needs adblock is cause there are disruptive ads ruining the experience. And instead of a browser based adblock using a dns based one is great with whitelisting googleads, media, and some other non disruptive ones.

True. Some websites are annoying on face. Like we have to close non stop popups, and search content between ads.

on serious note, anyone got that DA storage deal from hostbrr? need reviews honestly.

Have that 500gb storage box. At the moment it's choked from other users uploading and running yabs. But will probably improve over time.

really? like really choked, bandwidth is messed up IOPS as well?

Both bandwidth and IOPS have taken a hit. The provider mentioned they have made some changes and optimizations, should improve gradually.

If improved let me know that results it might not be that late to grab one. btw the storage is dedicated right? right?

Will keep you posted. It's a shared server with each user with their own home directory.

hmm sounds interesting only thing concerning now is storage being filled up quickly. Can you share server stats to see how much storage does it actually have.

I'd also like to hear reviews before I buy from them.

@dustinc do you have DirectAdmin Reseller Hosting too?

Hi @taalz -- Currently, we offer cPanel/WHM based reseller hosting. We've found that cPanel/WHM has been the go-to control panel that end-users are most familiar with, helping our resellers convert better and scale their business with ease.

That being said, we're always open to expanding our product offerings based on community feedback

DirectAdmin, the last time I tried it was rough around the edges. Guess, not a lot has changed.

I feel like DirectAdmin has potential, but overall it seems quite dead in the marketplace.
