Haha I learned the habit of properly lifting and not breaking your back this way. Looks like school taught me something practical after all.

Facebook has shut down my pseudonymous account because i did not provide a photo of my ID. Try it, you should meet more like-minded people there than on Lemmy

I used to have a burner account and a program that logged in to FB with Selenium and converted certain "pages" into RSS feeds. It worked great when it did, but Facebook has a lot of measures against scraping, and I burned out trying to maintain this.

I don't know a way to read their content without an account, which excludes me from a lot of local events.

All sellers had pgp keys published, everyone just used these and feds could not see shit.

Not like the later honeypots where the market published fake pgp keys on sellers' profiles and MITMed the communications.

I mean. I remember an article about an Amiga program that everyone used cracked, that only sold 1 copy. Sucks to be a small author in such a scenario.

Very hit and miss, I have to switch random VPN endpoints amd it takes 10-20 tries before I find one that works with Infinity.
