The others I'm aware of (that still seem to get updates) are Stunt Rally and TORCS.

Anyone else usually have DNS ad blocking but suddenly the Metservice app is full of ads?
Just normal Google ones. Did they change something or is something broken on my end?
Edit: I seemed to have solved it by disabling Private DNS on my phone. Not sure why it was working until now.
Haha does that actually work? I would think you'd see them in quite different places, and depending on the time of day you might not see a dog very often at all!
It depends specifically on the registrar as to whether there is an option to hide those details.
However, many places offer domain privacy services, where they put in their addresses and forward on any contact. Such as https://www.namecheap.com/security/what-is-domain-privacy-definition/
I don't think anyone really knows. It's the single person issue, that Ernest was the only person to have access to do anything. It seems something is personally wrong for him, maybe unwell, maybe something else, but no one hears from him for months. The flagship kbin instance run by Ernest, https://kbin.social/, has had an error and hasn't worked for months.
To my knowledge, this is the last anyone has heard from him:
I have been away from home for a long time now and do not have all accesses. I will try to restore access in the coming days. The care of the instance will also be handed over.
That was 5 months ago.
It's clear something is very wrong, but because Ernest is the only one with access that means no one can help. Mbin forked Kbin and have been actively developing Mbin. Many, if not most of the sites called "kbin" are now running Mbin.
Register your own domain! Pick a paid email service that supports it and then you never have trouble moving to a new provider again.
If you get an email provider that does a catchall then you can just make up emails on the spot and any email to any address on your domain will pop into your inbox.
I get simplelogin with Proton and I love that too, generate new email addresses that can't be tied to you but all go to your one inbox.
BTW your concerns with Proton are valid and it can be annoying not being able to use an alternate app for mobile.
Yip, Sublinks.
I'm not sure how far along they are, I don't think I've seen a sublinks instance in the wild. Their demo seems to be running the Lemmy frontend still, if I'm understanding things right. But it's basically a community project to build lemmy but in java instead of rust and they have a lot more moderation tools. It's what Beehaw are planning to migrate to, but I think it might not be ready yet.
Kbin is dead, Mbin is good but different to Lemmy. Also see PieFed and Sublinks.
The wonderful thing about federated services is that you can have fun with all the users on Lemmy and see all the content but not have to actually use the Lemmy software. You can even follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon and interact with posts from there (just in a Mastodon way).
For me it was displayed in an info box underneath the form that was linked by the above user. It might depend on region or some other factor, but as per the other comment it is best to use the form as the email can have a slow response.
Oh I didn't realise this! I'll have to investigate more. Even if you want proxying, it makes way more sense to use the proxy image functionality that actually deletes the images after a period of time.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I'm quite excited about it 😆
Edit: seems like it's been an option since 0.19.0!
First, don't stress over it. Most instances are not strict on only federating with guaranteed instances. Most do not auto-sync with Fediseer at all, and the ones that do are more likely to only be syncing censures (when other instances are reporting the instance as problematic).
To get guaranteed on Fediseer, you need another instance to guarantee you. If you start your instance, hang out in the spam defense chat, and are generally sensible with your instance, then you'll find someone willing to do it no problem. Guarantees are not a huge risk to an instance since they can also be revoked at any time. If someone guarantees you then you start being a dick, they can just remove your guarantee. So it's not a big decision, people wil be happy to guarantee someone who seems reasonable.
Who's idea was it to have busses replace trains on the weekend when RailEx is on 🤦
