Try Windscribe, they offer residential and datacenter IP’s. I don’t get the point, but it’s your money.
I erroneously said the IP’s are less shared, but that’s not the case per the page.
But still, they get past more ip-blocking.

After reading where I’m even posting: Renting a cheap VPS and using Wireguard to tunnel to it is also an option.
Then it really is only used by you.
Protip: “It gets better later” isn’t a good way to promote a game.
It has to be good from the start.
If it isn’t and it can’t hook a player, you’ve just lost a customer, who likely just refunded the game as well.
Now personally: I like terraria from start to end. It got a bit boring in the middle. I used to not be able to play it at all because /something/ about the game really triggered my migraines. It doesn’t anymore, and I can play it.
Hashing on client side is both more private, and secure. All the user ever submits is a combined hash (auth/pubkey) of their username + password.
If the server has that hash? Check the DB if it requires 2FA, and if the user sent a challenge response. If not, fail the login.
Registering is pretty much the same. User submits hash, server checks DB against it, fail if exists.
Edit: If data is also encrypted properly in the DB, it doesn’t even matter if the entire DB is completely public, leaked, or secured on their own servers.
Your password could also just be a long, unique sentence, without any excessive special characters. Maybe even a poem.
Like "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Vestibulum eu leo eu nibh efficitur viverra. Integer lacinia tortor est, quis aliquet tortor varius sed. Sed dapibus vel turpis at suscipit. Nulla consequat orci in nibh dapibus sodales. Phasellus at arcu ac dolor suscipit pretium. Curabitur sit amet justo sit amet ipsum scelerisque accumsan ac ac nulla. Nullam accumsan lorem sagittis iaculis varius. Nullam convallis nisi ante, id congue diam tincidunt vel. Aliquam sed iaculis mauris. Nam leo nisi, consequat sed sodales non, tempor vel ante. Nunc eleifend vulputate turpis bibendum bibendum. Morbi nec massa in mi sagittis lacinia id ut metus. Maecenas gravida mi vitae lorem laoreet sagittis. "
That’s alot of common characters and words; yet, it’ll take centuries to crack.
That’s a misunderstanding of DDoS. 0 byte packets are actually worse than large packets.
Which is why most DDoS (at least was) is extremely slow 0 byte requests until the server throttles/crashes under the number of requests.
E: Consider this. Are you more likely to throttle a bandwidth of terabytes/petabytes with couple million 1gb requests; or break it entirely by sending >4294967295 0 byte requests that effectively never stop being requested from the server?
You can care about people as a proxy of doing PR over the thing you like to do.
Not saying he’s an asshole or anything; people just need to stop having these weird as fuck personal relationships with online personalities whom they don’t even actually know.
But yeah, Linus used to care more, but it was years ago when he started saying he’ll stop being CEO soon. Started piling up from back then to where it is now.
Tl;dr: frustrations, inability to do the thing he wanted, high commercial pressure, family, impulsiveness (New houses, new cars, new projects while there were multiple still in progress or not even started), etc. Lost sight of what he was doing, and what he wanted.
Maybe that’ll slowly improve with new CEO, and the projects he started finishing.
Mate, you should never think an online influencer/store is on your side. They’re not.
Not even Steve from Gamer’s Nexus is your friend.
Can you still practice safe exchange with them? Yes, just be informed of your rights.
Edit/addition: Didn’t check the link. Thought this was about the last drama.
This addresses new issues, and it’s important to solve those issues.
I feel like when Linus was still CEO, he made too many choices too fast, and that’s caused the situation LMG is in now.
They have to rush content to get bills paid in time.
An extremely impulsive CEO is never good.
I’d say no. While yes for example in game development we’ve had new tech come up that wasn’t there 10-30 years ago, the “how” to do it was on paper decades earlier. It just wasn’t feasible to implement with current technology.
Due to IDE’s etc, it’s significantly easier to just create stuff these days, which for indie etc is extremely good.
It does however also mean that the implementation of tech X will be sub-optimal in most situations, because people don’t really understand the underlying tech.
That can be solved in non-corporate situations by asking for help/advice online, or looking it up; but in corporate that’d likely get you branded “overqualified”, and they’d fire your ass for focusing development time on improving/fixing something instead of just pushing, pushing, and pushing.
'course there are also programming fields specifically targeting to improve gaps left by IDE’s etc, to make them even easier and efficient to use.
So basically: Fuck big corpo, fuck “education” that prepares you for corporate rather than teaches you the fundamentals.
Yes, software is getting worse, as education and corporate are getting worse.
Where employees needed to know what they actually were doing in the past, now is mostly auto-filled by IDE’s and languages that target other languages, so employees need to know less and less fundamentals.
Which in turn means when a low-level error occurs, either no one knows how to fix it, or the corporate refuses to hire someone who knows how to fix it because they’re “over-qualified”, and therefore would “cost them too much”.
Personally I suggest you straight up install Librewolf instead.
That said, most extensions aside from ublock are pointless these days.
