  • Stupid Question:

    How do I find out if a website I use is hosted over cloudflare? The noscipt javascript blocker extension shows in some cases I blocked some cloudflare javascript. For example on the lemmy.world instance it shows a script labeled cloudflareinsights.com that I block. That apparently provides visitor analytics

    According to them on insights:

    Our edge sees all requests made to a website, regardless of whether it’s cached or uncached, the user has adblock, or they turned off JavaScript. This enables us to […]

    On other sites it shows a “confirm you are human” check-box labeled with the cloudflare brand (if I activate javascript for that site) – according to cloudflare wikipedia that service is known as Cloudflare Turnstile. This is how I currently see if cloudflare is involved.

    Another interesting thing I noticed on stackoverflow is email protected which confirms to me stackexchange also uses cloudflare somehow.

    I guess you could detect a Reverse Proxy by cloudflare based on its IP-Adress ~ but I do not really know how to look that up perhaps the following stack overflow answer might help using the tools nslookup and whois… Any other hints on this?

    nslookup www.monero.town whois -h whois.arin.net n <IP-Adress from prev command> | egrep 'Organization'

    Let me summarize the glory of the meme for people who do not get all the distributions references in textual form (and as a check if I get the references): The image shows the branding image of a bunch of operating systems and Linux distributions with memes … descriptions follow – left to right top to bottom:

    • Debian: Smiling old men with tea meme, since it is so standard 0815
    • Arch Linux: Overweight NPC meme in his room Anime collection in background
    • Ubuntu: Money Meme (because big Cooperation sponsors Ubuntu I guess?)
    • LFS (Linux from scratch a Distro where you build everything from scratch to learn how the linux system works): it has some Spongebob meme where Computer science P.h.ds get instructed by a wise snail who is an LFS user
    • Manjaro: guy who looks cool from the front but his ass is visible in a mirror behind him
    • Open-Suse: Chad-Meme (I guess the creator of the meme loved suse)
    • Linux-Mint: Weird guy who wants to be cool with a skateboard… I guess since Linux-mint is so easy to use??
    • gentoo linux and void linux: Stone age survivor in the woods with old tools (since you build everything from scratch with simple tools in these distros)
    • Garuda Linux: guy with flashy LED-strips built into his shoes and expensive gaming laptop trys to be cool with sunglasses
    • Pop-Os/Ubuntu: They are clones of each other, since they are all debian/ubuntu based
    • fedora: Psychopath American Psycho movie meme
    • Kali: Hacker with sunglasses on Laptop guy meme
    • Windows: Guy with a clone of himself behind him holding a gun. (viewing the Candy-Crush advertisement in the start-menu be like:)
    • Nixos, OpenBSD: Lonely guy sitting on a chair, staring into the void, he seems to be at peace.
    • Apple: Golden luxury toilet, 5 stars
    • Tux sits on a white Porsche racing car overtaking chromeOS sitting in a spongebob meme car, Apple with a cool Porsche red racing car behind.


  • Why do I prefer the Odysee Video Platform over YouTube? Some technical reasons:

    • native, user friendly RSS support: you can subscribe to channels using an RSS Button on their channel home page, you get a link like this that you can paste in your RSS reader. RSS feed items contain a playable Video on my feed reader, which means I do not need to visit the odysee.com website to watch my subscriptions, and I do not even need an account.
      • upload dates, and watchable Video are very well displayed in my RSS feed reader compared to YouTube feed items, which are a mess of header image and description
      • here is a tutorial how to get rss feeds from Odysee, yt, etc.
    • native, user friendly support for downloading video with a download button under the video (an elipsis button)
    • it is not the youtube monopoly
    • until now: no ads. Peer-tube is also a cool alternative… Some popular youtubers like Distrotube and others tech-youtubers have already an Odysee account.
