I don't know if it's only me, but I'm experiencing some strange behaviour from 'Alerts'
I seem to randomly receive alerts for things that are months or even years old - see below:
- this one popped up and linked through to a post from 2018!!!!!
It's not the first time this has happened (though it is a bit extreme in the time it may have been delayed 😁 ), nor is it a real problem that 'needs to be fixed' - but I am curious if others are experiencing the same.

Might be something about moves between threads/forums (I frequently move posts and threads to keep the structure and "ontopicness"), timeouts/expiry dates, synchronization.

Linode added the global firewall feature, what means the OS firewall can be disabled to free up resources. Let me know if anything is broken 😇
(I hope they will add IPS/IDS as well).

A few more observations on this: - I have to temporarily disable Bitlocker to login, but once in, I can turn it back on and still browse normally.
- I have to disable to view the Alerts popup.
- I have to disable to post anything. If I don't, I get the following error when I hit Preview, Post, or Save.
Quote:There has been an error due to your post data being empty.
- I tried whitelisting likera.com, but that didn't change anything.
I haven't been able to find any logs that show any blocking happening whatsoever. Based on all this, I'm wondering if it might be BL blocking outgoing POST messages to certain domains.

A good test would be a different MyB forum. For example, MyBB test subforum: https://community.mybb.com/forum-13.html. MyBB must not be blocked.
Does BitLocker have a support forum/line?

Hmmmm....
Once again I think I've forgotten how to use some of the basics - trying to be clever with the 'Spoiler' function (aka NSFW)
I get this
but no matter what I try and do next, nothing seems to work.
Obviously it's a PICNIC situation, but I'm sure I used to be able to do this thing quite easily
Help!

Another attempt to upgrade Apache (along with PHP, SSL, kernel and some other apps).
