I wonder if it’s when it switched to the Gutenberg editor maybe?

All of these AI prompts sound like begging. We’re begging computers to do things for us now.

I see that makes sense. So what does making it public/blending traffic do?

I’m still trying to understand searxng, does it start with nothing and build up its index each time you search? Will your results be rubbish for a while?

Damn I forgot about Reader 😞 I kept my late-00s “Legacy” Google Apps account until the end of last year, when their discounted rate (after fully removing free) was about to go up.

What if I don’t use Assistant? Does it still have access to other parts of my phone?

I’m in the same boat, the issue is my pixel 6 pro has a big smash on the screen so the Graphene option isn’t possible. I used to have a Xiaomi and actually really liked it but I hear they’re changing the os/UI? Also I dunno about ads, that sounds crap.

They use it as a substitute for egg whites in cocktails, and honestly it’s better.

All good! The laptop I was using Linux on I installed batocera on instead 😊

Maybe, but I’m not a huge Linux user and every time I dip my toe in I run out of tinkering time. Plus I had the Air laying around and it all installed so easily.

Just to be controversial, macos. It’s nothing fancy, just the arrs and Jellyfin running on an old MacBook air.

I’m not USA, I can never be 100% sure.

They want a tip at self-serve? That’s ridiculous!

I picked up from their response that they’re just using the public API, not in any kind of partnership?

I keep hearing about Kagi, are they reputable? I moved from Google to DDG and I do a fair bit of searching so I would be interested, but I guess there’s a bit of a one-company-knowing-my-search-history going on (totally unironically).

I haven’t heard of this before, but why is a reader a threat to a company? What’s the issue?

Ew.

I used to use Windows a long time ago, it was always slow and crap. I also tinkered with Linux but I don’t want to spend my free time (and some of my work time) troubleshooting. I like the idea of Linux, but for most people it isn’t there yet. Windows is just bad.

Apple has created a situation where, for better or worse, they are both the software and hardware. Yes, you’re locked in and pay for the name, all of that, but also they work. Really well. No troubleshooting, no bloat or slowing down. That’s what people pay for.

Also Photopea is pretty cool too

I use NewPipe, it’s a nice alternative but then I’m not a heavy YouTube user. How are they able to make it? I’m surprised YouTube would allow an app like this to exist.
