I do think its a waste to spend money on a search engine

I honestly believe that it’s good to pay for services if you find them good. FOSS does need the money but unless you want to wait for the long term, it’s not viable as a user.

Its fustrating as a FOSS nerd to see so many people shill yet another subscription based service …

I’m quite interested in FOSS stuff but I get disappointed by so much FOSS stuff I now just use whatever feels the best to me

i have tried these alternate search engines and I have to always come back to google. A friend I trust a lot swears that kagi is the best search engine, and so do other people I know, so it must have some merit.

I don’t, I moved to Chrome after a year of using Firefox full time.

EEVDF is the thing that is exciting about it.

they still do so

Many still use chrome

I actually remember reddit posts complaining they hit the same bug as he did, some days prior and also some days later lol

People get used to it, it’s “fine” but doesn’t improve considerably or add anything exciting, so people get bored. I moved from Firefox to Chrome, and honestly Chrome feels smoother and uses less ram seemingly for me on my laptop. Aside from no support for vaapi on wayland, chrome is fine imo

MacOS is similar but better. The sandboxing and permissions were planned and implemented long ago, and getting a new app is as simple as downloading its .app bundle and running it.

Seems like so. It’s far from ready though. Until it is (if it ever is…), I’ll be happy on NixOS or MacOS (if I buy a macbook).

Some say that these moves (Elon’s and Spez’s) mean that a economic catastrophe a la 2008 might come in the future. Sugs, but welp, it is what it is

Yup. This place is currently fine for people who can stomach the quirks and missing features and you don’t want them to come, feel overwhelmed about how it isn’t truly like reddit yet and then leave and not consider coming back
