How do I block "suggested for you" posts on Facebook? in c/android@lemmy.world

[-] forbiddenlake@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago

This joke will just yield a permission denied error because the shell redirection is tried before the sudo.

It would be echo 0.0.0.0 www.facebook.com | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts instead.

Cloudflare domains + alternatives? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[-] forbiddenlake@fedia.io 11 points 1 year ago

You can disable cloudflare's tls termination by setting the DNS record to DNS only. Be aware that this then bypasses their cdn, probably making things slower, and bypasses most of the security they put in place for you.

Other cdns may or may not do similar. It's hard to do WAF when you can't see the traffic.

Note that a registrar and a cdn are different things. It's possible to remain on cloud flare for your domain registration and DNS while using a different cdn.

Which non-standard / unpopular launcher do you use? in c/android@lemmy.world

This is somewhat unpopular in this crowd, but ever since Nova got bought by an ad company, I use pixel launcher. I don't actually need customization like more apps per row. The default is good enough.
