    I usually browse Tildes logged out, however today I decided to log in to participate. Before doing so, I wanted to explore Tildes' user interface a little. I opened the "Invite Users" page and was greeted with a message stating: "You aren't able to generate more invite links right now.".

    To the best of my knowledge, I have never invited anyone before. I have a strong, random password on my Tildes account so I believe it to be unlikely I was compromised.

    Are invites globally disabled, or could a site administrator take a look at my account and check what's going on?

    Yeah. Sadly, I can realistically envision them decommissioning it in the future though.

    Do you think that would mean trusted users would be given permission to moderate specific boards, kind of like reddit subreddits?

    I just joined, and although it’s not extremely active, I love Tildes already! Firstly, the user interface. This is what the reddit redesign should’ve been. Clean, simple and lightweight. Loading a post on new reddit takes 10 seconds or so, because of all the useless JavaScript, but posts loads instantly here. And there’s no ads here, which is a nice bonus.

    I also like the fact that it’s much calmer here, people focus on through-provoking discussion instead of attacking each other.

    To everyone who works on Tildes, keep up the great work! I’m sure this has been asked many times before, but do you ever plan on allowing anyone to register in order to grow Tildes?

  7. Comment on yt-dlp: A youtube-dl fork with additional features and fixes in ~tech

    yt-dl is great. At this point, youtube-dl feels like an abandoned project because I find that it often it takes longer to download a video than to watch it.
