    Do you have a source or a link? From my experience Brother is the best brand of printers that I have worked with (monochrome, laser).

    The other counters on the page are updating after each refresh. I think only the ICMP counter is broken. The IP address points to a Norway provider. I do not think there is a CDN, …

    Worse, stalebot makes it looks like the project has no issues nor known problems. Issues should be closed either with "wontfix" or let open if they detail a real bug that others ma…

    Reddit is already aggressively pushing for users to go to their official app when browsing on mobile. I would not be suprised that custom-made apps will be more limited in the futu…

    This also explains app size, IMO. Querying an API and displaying remote videos/images should not require 40+ MiB Android apps. I think most of the app size is the tracking code tha…
