    glad someone else is feeling this. it’s really strange and depressing seeing so many good things collapse within the year. and we’re getting no wins whatsoever

      Honestly I’m somewhere between “average person” and “ultra nerd” so the fact that I am finally too fed up with reddit and leaving for mastodon and lemmy makes me think more people will do likewise. I call that a win.

        Pedos, COVID, war et al is an excuse. After the recent raid, I believe that to avoid becoming a honeypot, they cut off the most risky source of activities - P2P torrenting. My basis of this claim are three things – torrent traffic is colossal, and torrents are mostly used for piracy (Mullvad evading DMCA issues) and ProtonVPN free tier does the exact same thing with banning P2P torrenting.

          Do you know a not sus VPN that supports p2p torrenting? I 🏴‍☠️ tens of games a month and recently our fascist government just passed a draconian anti piracy law, what VPN should I look to?
