They claim that they don’t link/save your search history so although they have your details for payment, technically it’s not linked. If they aren’t lying…

You’re accusing Cory Doctorow, the guy who invented the phrase “enshittification”, of making a blog post that’s really an advert…? Really???

Have a read on the trouble the 2600 guys have been having sending out emails for the next HOPE conference - the junk filter is also great at filtering out topics it deems unsuitable.

How do you provide evidence you didn’t use something???

Can only speak for the UK but as the lowest civil court here, small claims decisions are not binding on any other court (including other small claims courts) but they are considered “pervasive” and thus a judge should be aware and take them into consideration.

Thanks, will give it a try!

Nice generalising there… given all my friends are Android/Windows users I wasn’t trying to show off when I switched over, I just wanted an ecosystem that works when I want to do something… too many times in both Windows and Mint did I have to spend time setting up the system to do something instead of just getting on with it.

Not only does Kagi produce great search results, as good as “old Google” IMO, its business model means the above cannot (or at least, shouldn’t) happen. If it ever changed its model to include ads etc it would collapse so fast.

So for me, unlike the other poster, I’d recommend it to everyone who’s finding the existing search engines are rubbish and full of useless Etsy and SEO etc links.

ios autocorrect was already pretty dreadful

I’d like to know how that’s even remotely compliant with the ECHR???

This is genius 😂

I’m a sucker for most Cold War stuff and did really enjoy Firefox

Although he posted that he had to follow strict German anti piracy laws 🤷🏻‍♂️

Would be nice if there was a way or an app that ties together all those individual accounts into a single view.
