Real-Debrid’s Renewed Piracy Crackdown Follows Corporate Restructuring

Reply in thread

Since I left last time Real Debrid threw pirates under the bus:

I used https://alldebrid.com/ but wasn't quite as good at the time. Maybe it's gotten better since RD 1st exodus.

Premiumize is what I switched to and use now. Has as much cached as Real Debrid did during their peak as far as I can tell over the past year or however long it's been. But it's more expensive since it's a combo service not just Debrid and it's a lengthy feature list that includes cloud storage with many ways to access it, VPN, and Usenet amongst other stuff: https://www.premiumize.me/features

What is everyone doing to survive this food inflation?

Dried, Canned, Frozen, Fresh in that order of preference for us anyways. Off-screen half size chest freezer we've finally just finished the frozen sour cherries from the backyard tree last year that's now budding for spring. Besides that it usually has a bunch of frozen baked potatoes from my backyard again, pork cuts that were on sale, Mennonite colony DIY chicken. Vacuum packing keeps away the freezer burn. I have the choice of three discount grocery/markets near me where I can buy fresh produce it's just b-grade/misshapen. I've been slowly adding more backyard planters too but I focus on fruit tree/berry bushes since I'm a shite veggie gardener. Too lazy for the upkeep so just hardy stuff that I can't easily kill from neglect in our short growing season, hardiness zone 3B. Potatoes are easy at least but we ran out half way through winter.



Bonus: This week's slop pots. Metal pot used textured vegetable protein: https://i.postimg.cc/xdm5S0c8/signal-2026-05-14-144201.jpg

Reddit Starts Blocking Mobile Website, Pushing Users to App Instead

Reply in thread

Two things I noticed was most subreddits that weren't front pagers are getting way less traffic than they used to across the entire site.

The other is why I left: I saw a front page millions of subscribers subreddit go out of their way to temporarily bot purge during the IPO* drama. Upvotes went from 10k+ to...hundreds. Posting frequency fell off a cliff. It was so disturbing I left because I saw that in conjunction with Benn Jordan's video estimating how much of xshitter was bot traffic which he estimated to be a full third of all traffic on xshitler a year ago.
