        iirc the owner was a mod of a Linux sub and banned people for saying mods were corrupt. Aka what has happened at least once on 50% of reddit subs.

            I make it a rule for myself to not pass credentials (maintain an account) on any service which is MITM’d by cloudflare. I’ve lost several accounts to sites moving behind cloudflare in this way.

            Additionally, I have an extreme allergy to web tracking and cloudflare is positioned uniquely to be a point of central data aggregation, particularly about browsing habits and adtech shadow profile building.

            Even some fedi instances have infested themselves with cloudflare.

        I didn’t recognize most of these, but I’ve played a ton of Kingsway. It’s a very fun RPG where the Game itself is an Operating system and all the actions you’d normally take in casual desktop usage translate to game mechanics. I’ve had a lot of fun with it and it’s a real shame to see it on this list.
