Have you tried DigitalOcean? The last time I got an abuse complaint was around 2013 and they were quick to accept my reply and close the ticket. Was running a Tor Exit and they made me switch to non-exit. I imagine if you just reply with your regular we removed X post they’d be fine with your...
What hosting company isn’t tech savvy? With 64 GB of RAM you could easily cache the entire MySQL database, XenForo, and most attachments in memory. Might be an alternative to expensive NVMe drives
Do people not use firewalls anymore? The only ports on my server that are open is 80 & 443 and that's only to Cloudflare's IP Addresses, my SSH port is only unblocked temporarily for maintenance to my home IP Address. Why take chances?
If you're using PHP and have a good amount of RAM why not enable the PHP OpCache and increase the memory limit so your entire application is loaded into memory? From there you only have to worry about the database and any attachments you have uploaded.

ProtonMail is not designed for mass mailing and doesn't support SMTP unless you use ProtonMail Bridge (which is buggy and in beta), you can use a separate bulk-mailing SMTP server for a custom domain pointed to ProtonMail, Mailgun is free for small sites (reasonable fees for larger ones) and...
An issue to consider there is that the source code of your plugin unless there's some sort of obfuscation or decryption that happens with the license system, anyone could just comment that block of code out and use your plugin without a license, unless I'm missing something that's a completely...
Bumping this thread incase someone here has more advanced knowledge of this. After some testing I found that unless there's a way to force traditional posts instead of the jQuery API-based posts or show the Cloudflare CAPTCHA in a model that the WAF probably isn't worth using. It will block any...
Have any forum administrators here used the Cloudflare Pro "WAF"? If so what rulesets did you enable/disable to block legitimate attacks while avoiding false positives?
E.g. A WAF might block a code block in a post with PHP being blocked as "code injection" when the user is actually just trying...
As the title says I am looking for quotes from various designers to have a custom XenForo theme designed for me. What price range am I looking at and who here has worked with a design studio in the past?
