#132If you wish to listen without the website popping up, just format the stream url like so: https://stream.rekt.network/datawave.ogg https://stream.rekt.network/nightride.ogg https://stream.rekt.network/chillsynth.ogg https://stream.rekt.network/rekt.ogg https://stream.rekt.network/rektory.ogg
My chrome got served mp3, when these streams (which are opus) exist, and chrome is definitely capable of playing them, as they play as I click them. Why send me mp3?
Mobile Safari gives me .ogg when I click those links. Weird indeed.

#134This is amazing. I'm sure there's a lot of lore behind the project.

I get opus if I click these links, which chrome plays fine.
What I meant is, if I use the website, it will play mp3 instead.

there are reasons. Firefox has previously misbehaved with chained ogg via webaudio, old bugs that get fixed then regress, as is often the mozilla way.
Website should be updated to use a bitrate adaptive HLS stream like I do on nightride.fm - will backport that to rekt soon

I'm getting the mp3 stream too, in Firefox on Linux.
I also have a weird div covering half the viewport (vertically): https://imgur.com/a/vJqWmtO
edit: the div covering half the viewport also occurs on nightride.fm

A global MITM is a huge problem for privacy and access to information. Not to mention is anti-competitive. But, importantly, Cloudflare is also very hostile to Tor. A number of people in the world rely on it for their security and safety.
Cloudflare has made demonstrable efforts to accommodate Tor users, and I've personally noticed a reduction in the number of CAPTCHAs I encounter while browsing Cloudflare sites with Tor. They were definitely not required to do this, especially considering that sites like Google give Tor users unsolvable CAPTCHAs or block them altogether. And yet they did, which I took as a gesture of good faith. Some sites are still…
> Cloudflare has made some good-faith effort
What they did is too little and, especially, too late. They could have very easily disabled the blocking and yet they are still doing it.
Besides, you claim that it's done in good faith without backing that claim with evidence.
> If I had to choose an operator of such a global MITM, Cloudflare might be the least bad choice.
"could be worse" does not make something acceptable.
