I earn 1200-1700$ monthly without doing anything with a site i made in 48 hours. I agree its not easy. But with some luck its not impossible


Can you share more details about your site ?


i havent really thought about that aspect really. would social logins (including: twitter, github, maybe reddit) help? or would you rather see some registration process so passive you dont even notice? (like you start with creating the phrase and i ask for email anyway, why not send you a random pw then).

i cant do this userless as i am pretty sure this is against several anti spam restrictions.


Social logins would be worse.

Something passive I don't even notice would be fine, although getting an email "hey we just created an account for you" would be quite jarring as well.

I guess... If you frame it like "here is a token to change your settings" it'd be alright.


thanks a lot for your feedback. I really forgot that aspect, but i think i really could make a huge improvement in this point.


Feel free to ping me if you implement it :)


to be fair some get junked in to azure because of bizspark as well.


didnt microsoft remove the p2p functionality and made skype highly centralized?


Yes, but speaking from experience, that change resulted in a huge improvement in call quality. The P2P architecture is nice but leaves you at the mercy of your nearest node's internet connection and usage.


Not my experience. Having network issues all the time.


They did so because it was hard to do P2P for Skype on phones.


I figured that was just a figleaf and that the real reason was that this made it easier to intercept the traffic.


good point. i did not.

also you are clearly part of the 10% that know why. most installations ive seen did not use the whitelist approach and assumedbit ships with a good blacklist.

btw: chrome unloads tabs. especially pinned ones seem to be WAY less ram heavy when unused. i dont know about firefox tho.


thats like a whole hour less work. praise the operating system gods because this is as efficient as it gets.


while the idea is awesome. (i regulary would need such a service) i agree that it is hard to trust anyone with my emails.
