The website the run was played on (https://2048verse.com/) has replays that show every move with timing. We can compare the moves against move tables to try to see whether one was used and check the move times for any suspicious patterns.

Of course, the system isn't foolproof, and there's always a chance players could be using tables very conservatively. With all the information we have gathered, however, we have no reason to suspect P-Shiyi592's score.

If you're interested in seeing the replay, you can join the Discord or just DM me on Lemmy and I'll send you the replay code.

    It may not be your thing, but I believe this is a good thing. Some people don't make the switch to Linux at all because they can't play games with kernel-level anticheat. At the very least, anyone who may dual boot Linux and Windows can now boot Linux and their anticheat kernel Linux. Hopefully other Windows-only games will follow.

    I like IVPN because it feels like a pretty drop-in replacement for Mullvad. It's also available on Accrescent which is great for anyone using GrapheneOS.

    As for AirVPN, I thought you needed an email to sign up but after checking their sign up page, it seems you can enter whatever string you want for your email.

    They also support port forwarding unlike IVPN so if that's super important to you maybe AirVPN is the way to go.

    It also seems AirVPN is slightly cheaper year by year and significantly cheaper if you buy 3 years at a time.

    AirVPN has never had an independent security audit though, so if that concerns you IVPN is the way to go.

    Otherwise, it seems like AirVPN is a real contender if you're worried about price and/or port forwarding. Maybe I'll give both of them a try before I commit to one (still waiting for my Mullvad days to run out).

    If you're using Graphene, Vanadium is the way to go instead of Brave Origin. The security is significantly better as it's made for the OS (and you know how Graphene is with security). Also, no more need to use Brave! If you're ever using a different Android OS, there's Titanium, based on Vanadium.
