Does Delta Chat / Arcane Chat suffer from the same vulnerability?

Isn't this thread about sinks?

single handles are all well and good, but I'd prefer a hot knob, a cold knob, and a flow knob. I've never been clear why this isn't done, I suppose its probably cost. Maybe there is some wear and tare reason?

"you could block logged out users but that would impact many lurkers"

"regardless you might not be logged in at all, you should still be allowed to browse content"

Fundamentally, what I'm suggesting is a fork in the road. Either an instance admin can set up to eliminate scrapers by making the instance private to only registered users,

or they can maintain their instance as public and deal with more arcane methods to attempt to eliminate scraping.

The issue is that if the infrastructure isn't in place for the instance operator to decide to make their service private, then everyone is opted in to the Scrapers vs Countermeasures war with no alternative.

Privacy and encryption just work, it seems like not building the infrastructure to enable the network to function with them in place is a mistake.

To me, and to many users, what we want is fast load times, quick federation, and reliable service, all things that benefit from reducing traffic load to only registered users.

Unfortunately the Big Beautiful Bill gutted the US utility scale Solar industry, and while it makes up a relatively small percentage of total solar installations, I do wonder if it has had follow-on effects.

The US is hitting an energy crisis, electricity rates are skyrocketing, any failure to build out any source of power seems perverse.
