My assumption was that the user sets the decryption password. Yes, if the decryption password is not your own then you may want your own password on top of that. The point was that there is in principle no reason for requiring the user to enter more than one personal password per session.

If the device is encrypted and single-user there is no good reason to require further login after the first. If user is AFK then it locks, but then they should only need to type in that password. All this inconvenience is due to overlapping security practices that aren't designed together.

Lots of Chinese stuff that lack subs. Often it's only available on bilibili, too.

It's this weird US thing

 

It doesn't feel like the algorithm is weighted properly. I usually see the more recent comments near the top even if they have no or very few upvotes (or sometimes even in the negative), with the highly upvoted comments somewhere lower down.

I would expect Hot to feel more like Top but with extra weight given to the rate at which a comment is being upvoted, giving more visibility to new discussions in older threads.

I think comments with a high number of upvotes deserve a little more weight to avoid a 12h old comment with 60 upvotes being outcompeted by a 12m old comment with one or two upvotes. I could accept a 1h old comment with 10 upvotes being placed above a 10h old comment with 30+-10 upvotes.

I would also like to be able to change the default for my account.

Why would they crack down specifically when it's open sourced? I could see why they would do it before it goes open source though. Once it's out there it'll be hard to prevent the continuation of the project

US centrism. I tried to unsub from the worst offending communities, but I still am unable to scroll down a page without seeing something obviously only relevant to the US or tainted by yankee culture. posts and comments assume everyone is USian and anyone who isn't is treated like a foreigner.

It made my mood worse, affecting my daily life. So I cut down, and now I barely go there at all.
