i genuinely think instead of hating on blaze for what it is, we should improve it with either third-party scripts or contacting kyle about the issues

that would be much more useful than botting and spamming the api

balze @balze

wasteof user @joshatticus created a userscript which blocked tracking requests and ip grabbers on Blaze which is accessible at:

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/486535-fixupbalze/code

otherwise, you can use the following ublock origin filters if you want added privacy:

# IP tracking/blocking
ipify.org
synctrack.io
geojs.io

# Wix analytics

I agree, hating on the site does nothing to improve anything

Botting and spamming the API is indeed bad, but Kyle is very much aware of the issues with Blaze and doesn’t care

exactly that’s why I am not encouraging harrassing, botting, or spamming blaze or its creator but I am simply pointing out problems with it and how people can prevent these risks.

false. he’s contacting wix about the ratelimiting issues, he’s reworking the ui, and trying his best to make the site better — but wix makes it harder

i hope those 25 likes help him to make his open source thing that helps him move away from wix or whatever
