For passwords 16+ characters, simply plain text files. Not the best, I know. Hoping nondescript folders and built-in OS encryption (if present) will be good enough. If the site supports Unicode, I use strings laced with non-ASCII characters like Hebrew, Thai, Traditional Chinese, etc so no way it is simple to type on most International keyboards (maybe I’m just fooling myself and making it harder for me haha).

Happy Birthday! Better to be late than never!

If you have to keep them in a text file anyway, how is it harder?


About how a site is configured, what would you choose?

A) individual PHP files with the headers and footers injected with require() or that other function
B) A single PHP file, with the content injected between the headers and footers from a database
C) All statically generated HTML, maybe no headers or footers at all.
D) Some inefficient CMS

I do A.

I’ve been using method B, it’s more efficient I find.

The main site on www.infinityfree.com uses a variation of option C.

It uses a static website builder. It doesn’t have a concept of “headers and footers”, it’s based on “layouts” which are wrapped around page contents, so those contain any shared headers and footers.

Since it’s pure HTML at runtime, it’s extremely fast and efficient (no need to boot up a PHP interpreter for it) and can be hosted virtually anywhere.

Got myself a new phone, went for a powerhouse this time.

I also got my mother the same thing, to be a replacement for her old cracked phone. It doesn’t feel right for me to upgrade and leave her with something that’s cracked and has issues running her favourite game, Monopoly Go.


I’m getting very annoyed that I keep being signed out every time I exit the browser. Please change the settings back to before, but not forever signed in!

I’ve remained logged in since I first joined the forum, perhaps it is something to do with your device.

That makes me wonder, where do you host the client area/forum? Do you use premium hosting and do you use the discourse hosting from discourse?

My device is new, but it carries the same settings as my old ones. Perhaps you have cookies set to expire later in the future.

Not a problem I had.

You do need a card to be able to verify yourself (you’re not charged)

This article by “Not_Me” might explain it better than I can

I’m not Admin but apparently I know this one:

  1. Discourse normally wants docker normally and thus, premium hosting is simply incapable.
  2. No, this forum is not running on the official hosting. It’s running from VPS, although I can’t quite remember what’s the providet.

CMS are popular because they’re inefficient? Lol.

To me this options seems like bias. You can say CMS are usually big systems, but then it won’t automatically make it slow as f*ck.

And in terms of website content updates then a CMS is more efficient than A, B, and C.

The android version tho, is there no update yet? Btw congrats!

Did you check the remember me checkbox?

I always use three dots > close ad > choose one of the reason for closing > ad goes away

To check, let’s have an embed to my site, which hits my server that i can see logs on:

Then i’ll check it’s geolocation from the IP in my logs..
