What about PHP?
tomudding · 3 years ago
Yes, fixed in all (at the time) supported versions in October last year [0].

I have been using the Timeless skin [0] for quite some time now and the main reason I switched was that the content would be a bit more condensed towards the middle of the page. This helps a lot on larger monitors and I can see why this new theme also does something similar. However, the large amount of whitespace on the sides is just wasted and in combination with the fact that more interaction is required to do basic things (like changing the language of a page) is something that makes this new theme not "barely noticeable".

It would be nice of Github if they could publish a transparency repo with all the partners and all the regex along with this initiative. I see a lot of people in this thread worried that "China gets their data" and this transparency repo could alleviate some of that.

There is a list of partners [0], I thought I had seen regexes at some point but I can no longer find them.

He leaves behind a great legacy. I can highly recommend Blood Music, Eon, or Forge of God if you have never read one of his books. However, my personal favourite was actually the (Halo) Forerunner Saga series.

I'm confused about the ToS comment by Cloudflare. The txt is on a website so it is a web content?

So robots.txt is not supported by Cloudflare to cache/proxy it? That would be a weird regulation. And I bet everyone violates the Cloudflare ToS then.

tomudding · 3 years ago
Cloudflare caches robots.txt by default when proxied (the only .txt-file that they automatically cache), for all other content the following from their ToS probably applies:

> Use of the Services for serving video or a disproportionate percentage of pictures, audio files, or other non-HTML content is prohibited, unless purchased separately as part of a Paid Service or expressly allowed under our Supplemental Terms for a specific Service.

We will never know the reasoning of the support agent who replied to the EasyList maintainers, but I can imagine that it is indeed disproportionate for EasyList.

I really hope that Cloudflare actually sees that they are making a wrong decision here and actually help the EasyList maintainers.

> EasyList is hosted on Github and proxied with CloudFlare.

What is the reason for proxying through Cloudflare? Are there any bandwidth limits or performance issues when directly serving those files from GitHub?

GitHub has a soft limit of like 100 GB/month on transfers for Pages. According to the Adguard blog post traffic was already several TBs a day before the issue arose.

Nothing else at the moment, even as opt-in. We're considering this in the future, but want to make sure we do it right.

Make sure you do it differently than how Muse Group did it with Audacity (specifically the announcement and explanation of why and what parts) [0]. Which I'd argue is not particularly difficult to do.
