People are currently dunking on this post that complains about Mastodon link previews DDoSing their servers - and they deserve every bit of it.
Pulling up this site in a browser with no privacy/sanity plugins installed, it made a total of 3740 requests within 4 minutes, which amounted to 267.22 MB transferred. It has ads left, right, bottom and center, and it has one of those annoying autoplaying videos, which ALSO has a video ad in front of it. The website would not scroll even close to fluently, and I'm doing this on a 24-core M2 Ultra Mac Studio with 128 GB RAM. I had to use the `debugger` command in the JS console in order to make the network panel in dev tools stop lagging.
In addition, they quote someone complaining about 114.7 MB being requested from their server over the span of 5 minutes. Not only is that less than half as much as you make a single user download if they don't actively cut into your bloatware crap, it also amounts to a whopping 3.06 Mbit/s that you're complaining about. THREE MEGABITS PER SECOND!
Your website is an insult to the internet.
koukam, ze se po bazarech vsude vyrojily tolik oblibene Digitakty, za 16k, dokonce za 14
tak jsem si rikal, ze se asi ukazala nejaka neopravitelna chyba a lidi se toho rychle zbavujou, nez to vyjde do verejne znamosti
a ona proste vysla nova verze 😅
Sčítanie (czsk) ľudu!
Či už si utečenec z Twitteru (ako ja), oddaný Mastodonec, social media experimentátor, alebo si sem iba zablúdil - daj o sebe vedieť!
Boost poteší.

Česko je pokud vím unikátní v tom, že každý občan má přístup do lesa — i když je ten les privátně vlastněný. Třeba v USA to tak není, a můžu vám říct, že jsem to tam vnímal jako dost důležitý rozdíl.
Teď se nějaká lobby snaží změnit zákon tak, aby si mohli vlastníci lesů přístup veřejnosti zakázat.
Podepsal jsem proti tomu petici zde: https://lesyprovsechny.cz/
