How??? Asking for a friend…

That! And then forget you have them for three years because ADHD.

Yeah I just find the title very weird, to me it makes more sense to choose a search engine because it respects your privacy than to “support European companies”

I hadn’t read the “Need help choosing?” part of the picture, so still oupsie on my part 😅 I wish it mentioned that it’s decentralized… but considering it’s aimed at people using Google, I guess that’d be like trying to convert people from twitter/reddit to mastodon/lemmy by geeking out about decentralization and ActivityPub. No one cares, aside from the people who are already using it 😅

The 58 minutes of coffee is necessary in preparation of the all-nighter that will follow once he realize that some of the information is hallucinated and he now needs to manually look at all the sources and check them

yeah I wish decentralized search engines were more common

At least until Ladybird is ready. I hope they are not under too much pressure to rush things so we get a truly independent web browser.

How about just NOT supporting companies? Having an European company control what gets shown to you is not much of an improvement over having an American one do it…

There are decentralized search engines like SearXNG

As she and the other leftists marched, a young man, bare chested and wearing a bucket hat, approached a demonstration marshal. He seemed confused. He wanted to know where the protest for the opposite point of view could be found.

Whaaat? 😂

A secret service officer, trying to explain the general confusion, just sighed. “Nobody knows what’s going on.”

I’m dead 😂 😂 😂

Yeah I’m sure it was the weather. It feels like fascism’s about to rain. Anyone’s got an umbrella?

So there aren’t any new ones being developed since systemd?

If it takes too long to load I just use yt-dlp to download the video or whole playlist and watch it later. Do I care that it’s putting additional strain on YouTube’s servers? Indeed, I’m devastated and overtaken with guilt 😂 These are tears of regret, I swear 😂

I’m not saying that it’s not a lot worse now, I do agree that it is. But things were already headed this way long before ChatGPT. SEO had already gone a long way in killing the web, I think AI will just be the death blow.

oh I thought runit was an old init system from before systemd, I guess I shouldn’t have assumed that systemd was the latest one because it’s everywhere, thanks for the info I’ll check it out!

which ones? I wasn’t aware there were new ones

Haiku is pretty neat

“about to destroy the web” ???

Where have you been these last 10 years? It’s been getting worse for a long time, even before AI. It’s just getting worse quicker now.

Thanks for educating people about the usefulness of adblockers, YouTube ❤️

That answer should have been worth a free drink and a taxi home
