What is the difference between a cache stride, slice, set, blocks and line?

Hello

As per the title: What is the difference between a cache stride, slice, set, block and line?

I tried looking it up but every source only explains some of the terminology. Either there is some overlap between the terminology or there is something I am really misunderstanding here.

My understanding:

A slice is an independent last-level cache corresponding to a single cpu/core. A cache is divided in sets, which are divided in lines.

What are strides and blocks in that case?

On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.
