Here’s another good reason why I hate “view” counts. Everyone else is faking the numbers, making us look bad and have to answer questions about why numbers elsewhere are so much higher. https://www.theverge.com/social/639811/view-counts-tiktok-instagram-x-youtube-lies

So the software is free? 😊

You couldn’t setup the infrastructure and migrate your site in that time. Think about the total cost.

I’m in a similar situation, but still planning when I’ll make the move. I think the migration fee is a good deal. They are providing a service that’s likely much more costly that $250 (if you consider the hourly rate of an expert), but they can make it up in the long run.

It’s the same thing. Cloudflare.

Show us a better solution.

Who the heck is going to provide legal protection? If it’s reported, then great! That’s a step toward finding the perpetrators.

Here you go - https://developers.cloudflare.com/cache/reference/csam-scanning/

This is great. I've been doing it thorugh Cloudflare for years and I'm happy to see IC do it too.

No worries Marc. Thanks for the answer. I don’t expect anything further, as I completely understand the situation.

Just asn FYI @Marc , I tried to login to @opentype's IC 5 site with the Orion browser and it works just fine. There's something about the official IC site that it's having trouble with. I removed my cookie and re-tried, and on another Mac, but still no luck.

OK, here is a screen recording of me trying to login, and showing the console. Not much to see. Screen Recording 2025-02-05 at 4.28.44 PM copy.mov

Thanks Marc. I realize it’s not the norm, but it’s part of a very cool company, Kagi. On iOS I can login. I will check my desktop again and check the console for errors.

Hi Guys, I'm having trouble logging into IC using the Orion browser from Kagi - https://kagi.com/orion/ I can log into all other sites with this browser, which is based on WebKit, just not IC. When I try to login I get the login screen, enter credentials, then it takes me back to where I was, but I'm not logged in. Any help is appreciated.

Very cool. Thanks for all the hard work. This is the best platform without question.

This is a great move. Thank you.

I use Yourls, the self hosted link shortener. It's awesome. https://yourls.org

Hi Matt, just circling back to this to give you a nudge and make it known that I think it would still be be fantastic if community owners had the ability to enable/disable this stuff :~)

Wow, that’s some serious dedication to passkeys.

Should we let you know on the Alpha site or here on the production site?

Not on my site. But I can see that issue on another site. I would but IC seems to be against third party anything and it’ll become a liability when moving to v5.

When I wake up and the Europeans have been bickering about something off topic all night, I have no choice. When a user says, "hey can you move posts 31, 51-70, 73, 88," finding those post numbers in a thread, selecting the posts, then selecting Split to new topic is dead simple.

In the report posts mod page, can I move 50 reported posts at one time to a newly created topic? 50 shared URLs is a fool's errang to work with as a moderator seeking to create a new topic for all of them.

I totally get it, but allowing us community owners to decide if we want to enable them would be the best solution for us. My issue is about splitting off topic posts into new topics as a moderator. When a topic has 50 off topic posts, among 500 on topic posts, and they are weaved into the topic all over, it's very hard for a moderator to split the right posts into a new thread, without something like "please move posts 35, 50-71, 74." Users are the ones reporting this stuff to the moderators. Post numbers make it easy for both them and us.

Thanks Randy. Such a bummer. Saying something like post 45, 51-70, 72, etc... is much easier than sending me links to 30 posts that I need to click on.
