Bar Keeper's friend will get that out, I use it when things get especially grimy. I've used it on a similar tub before that was pretty gnarly with discoloration worse than that.
It is very abrasive though, be careful not to scrub so hard you damage it.
It's similar in a lot of ways and this is still an echo chamber and the echo chamber we have here has a lot of overlap with reddit... but, while reddit mostly just leaned left... Lemmy... just leans anti-west. As mentioned, there's a lot of overlap there, we've got a lot that is shared, but the parts where those two groups differ can cause some serious wtf moments if you're used to the reddit community. As far as over policing, moderation logs are mostly public and there have been some controversies, but mostly people just stopped caring or left. If you stick around long enough, you will notice policies being applied unfairly if you're on the 'wrong' side and it's a lot easier to be in that category here.
All that to say, you'll likely have some moments where you think... Maybe that old echo chamber wasn't so bad.
With ancestry, yeah, that's going to suck and it's the bigger database, but with familysearch, you've got an API:

Not sure what your limits are.
Maybe not an eli5, but lots of reasons.
There's no stable, consistently updating client that everyone agrees on, the real 'emule' client hasn't been updated in over a decade. Once you get past that hurdle, the setup is also a lot more cumbersome than other file sharing options. The network also has kind of a bad reputation because there's not a great way to see if you can trust a file until you're finished downloading it and people definitely do take advantage of that.
Not great things, but she did make it.
Israel has been near 100% loyal to the US since the two countries became friends. That doesn't mean they're perfect obviously, but their support of the US is near flawless, even when they probably should have thought twice.
And then, on the other end, the government of Israel's key enemy is an organization that has been designated as a foreign terrorist organization by multiple countries including the EU.
From a political standpoint, there's no compelling reason to do more than lip service. Have to remember, politics doesn't care about people.
Yeah, common VPSes are monitored too, it's a very easy add. Alert on IP ranges from a publicly maintained and easy to find list is not a hard ask. If you ran it through AWS, it would probably pass a lot of basic checks. Using residential IPs will probably get you a bit of time, but I can't imagine there being a good way to do that without it being very hard for the VPN provider to keep up and very easy for a security company to just make a new list of IPs and assume the whole range is bad.
Your best defense here though is that your cybersecurity team probably doesn't care that you're doing this once it's determined that you aren't a malicious actor as long as you aren't creating too many alerts.
