Indeed. I was referring to the revenue stream. The Cloud brings in a regular flow of cash whereas the self-hosted version probably not so much right now.

I certainly agree that it would have been better to have made a number of small releases rather than attempt to save everything up for one mega patch. Tiptap at the very least should have been a priority release.

Perhaps they are dining out (so to speak) on a steady income from the Cloud and can afford financially to take their time working on the next release.

That's not how I read it. I saw it as @Stuart Wright asking for opinions from other addon providers and given the international sanctions against that region it's a sensible ask imo.

Most of us have a line that we wouldn't want to cross and for me it would be the nature of the individual forum rather than for geopolitical reasons.

According to the BBC... Cloudflare said the "significant outage" occurred after a configuration file designed to handle threat traffic did not work as intended and "triggered a crash" in its software handling traffic for its wider services. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c629pny4gl7o

Cloudflare are describing it as 'an internal service degradation that may intermittently impact some services' which has got to be understatement of the year. Security experts are claiming privacy risks are involved although I'm not really sure how.

I don't use Cloudflare. My sites reside on a pretty robust server that has had no reported downtime except for what was planned in more years than I can remember. I also don't have issues with performance or DDOS/bot attacks so Cloudflare really has nothing to offer me. As an (impatient)...

Indeed but there would be a riot if it ever got changed.

Although I'm not a huge advocate of threaded platforms, they seemed well suited to DPreview. To an extent it's what you get used to, https://forums.thinkbroadband.com/ being another example where threaded replies seems to suit well. It's ugly but it works. I can understand why DPreview have...

I would get a quote from @MySiteGuy

You're over complicating things although to be fair the wording that @Jeremy P used does seem a little confusing. You simply need to replace a file on your server with the supplied file of the same name. So download the attachment and unzip it on your PC. You then need to upload that unzipped...

I would at the very least take a copy of your database before you go ahead, just in case any unforeseen circumstances arise.

Exactly, as long as a proper process is followed the member should have no way back. Give them the opportunity to identify their PII, delete it and anonymize the account. If the account is properly anonymized all the information that is personal to them including their user name, password...

I'd argue some of the replies in this thread are a little misleading. Ofcom's primary function is to enforce the Online Safety Act so unless your site is in breach of that Act Ofcom would not act on any report. The UK laws that are relevant to the situation described are GDPR and the Data...
