    Dont. They are notoriously bad at such things. Lack of Hardware acceleration mainly. These old Chips and problems with single-board-complications are just not worth it at such high prices.
    An Intel N100 MiniPC will have much more compute with less complications.

    Seemy like you dont know how the cli actually works.
    So if you ever have to touch the CLI (not sure when a normal user would need to), you complain you dont know the CLI instead of learning the tools you want to use?
    Lots of stuff on Windows didnt work for me when i wanted advanced things… very intuitive to fix that, if it was even possible.
    Every system has its fair share, but if you are unwilling to learn and understand your tools before using them, you might drill yourself in the hand. Windows is just a bit over-protective before you can do so.



  • Of course they are linked, but removing the username from the comments means they are mostly anonymized as far as GDPR is concerned.
    It is perfectly fine to unlink data and keep processing it, as long as its considered anonymized under GDPR.

    Your post content here is also not considered personal data, it shows up on a lookup request because its currently linked. If i crawl the page and dont save the username, the resulting data can most likely be considered anonymized under GDPR as far as the current interpretation is concerned.
    It only becomes a problem as soon as i become aware the content indeed did contain personal data or probably also if i could have expected it to with high probability.
    And i’d have to make sure to remove obvious ways to re-link the content to your user (e.g. mentions of your username in comments).

    Anything else requires precedence about ways to re-identify someone based on posts on a platform weighed against the users freedom and the difficulty of doing such re-identification.

    Recital 26 discusses when something could be considered anonymous. (or rather when gdpr would apply at all, and what it means to have anonymous data)


  • Now i dont want to defend reddit here, but afaik most comments are not subject to GDPR as long as you dont know they contain personal data and they have been detached from other personal data fields (like username).
    So by removing personal data fields, they most likely become “anonymized”.
    Of course thats not the end of it, you have to consider the available technology to de-anonymize this data for it to be legally called anonymized.

    But i dont think there has been any case where this was challenged before… and i bet most supervisory authorities would discard such complaints as being “too hard to follow through”. (i got that reply from the Netherlands authority for checking newsletter opt-in from a website)
    And i certainly dont think reddit or any operator will be forced to delete comments because they could be deanonymized depending on the content the user wrote, when most comments probably cannot be deanonymized.
    Having to check everything for potentially identifiable data in that regard would be ridiculous for website operators.
    Maybe some light checks sure, but not as deep as it would be required to truly anonymize everything that a user could have written to identify them.
    Alot of that information becomes fragments as soon as you unlink it from the user. e.g. 12 people in a post wrote “I am gay”, great. But if you cant link that back to other comments of the same users somewhere else, its not identifiable, just text.
