Thank you for putting in this amount of effort highlighting some shortcomings of the Fediverse

How is this relevant to Linux? FF release notes get posted here, as FF is the de facto standard browser on Linux distros. Vivaldi isn't.

I do not want to judge on Vivaldi, I am merely questioning its relevancy to the community here.

I am aware of that possibility, but a truly FOSS MOBA would be amazing. Custom balancing on different servers, different queues, etc.

I am not a fan of at best non-descriptive, at worst clickbait titles with one-sentence post bodies.

Ich bin auf Lemmy um zu erfahren, was andere Menschen denken und nicht, was eine KI für A andere denkt.

Searches are not pay-per-use anymore. But you still have to be logged in to search. The premise is, that they don't store your searches. It is not their business model. You are the paying customer, not the ad firms. This is, ultimately, not verifiable. It comes down to some sort of trust. And I do trust in them. The developers are actually great guys, there is a discord where they answer immediately, and a discourse forum where you can submit bugs/features, etc.

They take a strong stance on freedom. They refused to implement a suicide prevention message, as they felt, that it wasbnot the job of the search engine to patronize the user.

There is such a thing as a 'session link'. You can get it from you account. With this, I don't think cookies are necesary. But the link expires so you have to do it probably every few days anew.

The thing is: I want to aupport them. They have cool features (up/downranking websites, GPT-4 access over their proxy, etc.) Is it better than self-hosting: no. But I don't wanna self-host. And search is something that costs. So any service that does not live off donations or some sort of payment, is suspicious.

I hope I explained some of my reasons. Please debunk me and make me cancel my subscription there if I am in the wrong. Im not a shill and actually interested in your concerns :)

This is the new "Is $DATETIME_NOW.year the Year of the linux desktop?".

I am sceptical. The paradox of 'DoNotTrack' is, that this setting is used to track you; it gets ignored and, as most users do not have it enabled, makes you more unique.

Someone said, that this new setting is legally enforcable in California. We shall see how it applies to the rest of the world.

I just love what has become of this thread:

• Think it's a nice post
• Look for Google/Kagi, but they're missing
• People ask for sources, realize OP has chart from VERY dodgy conspiracy website
• People start accusing Kagi Support of lying to their face, Screenshota of convo attached
• Other users don't think its a lie, rather a misunderstanding
• Insults start
• ?

For further explanation of any point, please hit me up :)

• It is Chromium based
• It has used dubious methods in the past (replacing links with affiliate links, the whole ad/crypto thing, ...)
• Brave's business model relies on ads (I think)
• [This is a weak point, but at least in the privacy community, Brave isn't super popular. It feels more geared towards the "hyped crypto early adopters". ^[1]^ It might be "fine" for someone switching from Chrome (which is always a good thing) but going all the way would be a modded Firefox.]

TL;DR For most provacy concious Brave users, Brave is a step in their journey towards more privacy, and not the final destination.

[1] The "dumb AF tech youtubers" you mentioned in another post are typically the Brave hype crowd. This is not meant to discredit Brave; it's just that a share of their users are this way.
