Unfortunately Cloudflare does not do .ca domains. I imagine this is because there are restrictions on who can own one, so it's probably not worth the trouble for them.

I think an open-source general device benchmark would be cool. Including CPU / GPU / Battery life metrics. As far as I know, everything that does this is proprietary.

As mentioned in the post, from three sources. The two site dimps were publicly available as torrents. The third was distributed privately.

Don't buy into any site requiring money. There are plenty of good private trackers run by community members. Once you join and get your feet, feel free to donate if they are doing a good job.

I checked and this is not present on my device. It is an unlocked Google Pixel 6a purchased via contract with the mobile provider. That said, I factory reset the device when I got it, so it may have been removed at that time.

There are pretty okay trackers asking for no proofs on open signups. It's mostly a matter of patience. You can even just sign up for everything and see what's a good fit, but be sure to use unique passwords on everything to be safe.

If FNP or LST open up again I would suggest signing up, they are shaping up to be good entry level trackers. Also TL usually opens a couple times a year. It's a massive site but kind of a mess when it comes to curation. Don't use iPT unless you have no other option.

People will tell you to join book/music trackers to rank up, but unless you like grinding I'm not sure this is the best route.

Like others, I had an account before this was implemented. I have a couple projects on there, also mirrored to self hosted gitea. Have had people refuse/unable to contribute to the gitlab project due to the kyc requirement, so I'm thinking I will migrate to codeberg soon.

That looks like a web hosting provider, not a VPS.

I know that DO does require KYC, not sure about Vultr.

Namecheap does not. I have a VPS with them, paid via crypto, and they don't have any real details about me.

I'd say the The Expanse fits the bill. It is a book series with a very successful television adaptation.
