I’m also curious, I spent more time figuring with SearXNG than being able to use it, and one of the numerous issues was no server seemed to stay up and they were slow when they were up.

Absolutely this. I’m excited to try Mullvad, but with Kagi being the only one listed I’m never going to try, I can firmly say from my perspective search engines all suck big time these days. 15 years ago I think my search success on Google was somewhere around 80%, now I would say it’s somewhere around 20%, takes me dozens of searches and variations on wording to find what I’m looking for. DDG never gives me good results, because it feels like Bing has only crawled 10% of the Internet. SearX or whatever it’s called and it’s variations all were way more headache than they were worth and I had tons of issues with them.

Oh, I didn’t realize it was symbiotic. When do they take you for your walk and let you eat?

Does it? I’ve just taken it to mean enslavement. Every definition I can find lines up with pet ownership like a carbon copy.
- Comment on A crate for puppy 1 week ago:
I’ve never understood the copium it takes to convince yourself this isn’t just slavery of other species. They have no choice in anything without a human, from defecation to eating, and you literally cage them when they act against your wishes. I’ll take my downvotes now.
- Comment on Ukraine: Zelenskyy offers to quit in return for NATO entry 1 week ago:
I agree with every word, but I just feel like there’s something a little special about Ukrainians that make them willing to stand in the face of tyrants others would fold to. There’s a lot to the history of their name:

- Comment on Amazon's previous VP of Prime Gaming said they "tried everything" to disrupt Steam 1 week ago:
LMFAO, I love when someone says they tried everything when it’s so blatantly obvious they didn’t really try anything.
Both Epic and Amazon seemed to believe that if you gave out enough free games then Steam would just… Disappear? Really really dumb.
Neither company has invested any time into making their launcher any good. They haven’t invested any time into making their ecosystem feature rich like Steam. They have just given away a bunch of games and had sales and hoped that magic would take care of the rest.
Valve doesn’t even have to try to beat the competition when the competition doesn’t put any effort in.
GoG Galaxy is the only decent alternative launcher I’ve used and it’s being maintained (seemingly) by one guy who only works one day a year. It’s not as good as Steam by a long shot, but far far better than any of the launchers that come from companies WAY WAY bigger and wealthier. Even the itch.io launcher is better!!!
Blizzard, Amazon, Epic, EA, Ubisoft, and Rockstar (and more) all have their own launchers and not a single one is decent or necessary. Why make such an inferior product when Steam already exists?

I love when the worst examples are held up as representatives of the entire group. There have ALWAYS been lazy people and there have always been ignorant people. Ignoring capitalization, punctuation and grammar has always been on the table for those who have no self respect.

Yaaaawn. I’ve used every Windows version well past it’s EoL. The CONSTANT articles on this being shared to Lemmy just feel like pathetically trying to convert people to Linux. I couldn’t be less worried about it.

- Comment on [sh.it.post] We're #5! We're #5! 1 month ago:
This is upsetting as fuck. This one picture just made me realize that Lemmy is likely never going to get much bigger. The top is just an exact clone of Reddit, meaning there’s no reason to use it over Reddit, and the next three are active propaganda mills filled with fascists and tankies. After that you get normal servers. That’s a terrible look. That guarantees anyone new joining will likely join one of those 4 and will either think “what’s the point, this is just Reddit with a percent of the users” or “JFC these people are all Nazis” or worst of all which seems to already be the case “finally, somewhere I can speak freely about those dirty Ukrainians/Palestinians/Americans/Women/LGBTQ/OtherMinorities!”

This stuff always worries me. Like, yeah, the current admins are actual tankies, BUT they don’t abuse their position and let Lemmy be free as it can be. It only takes a few bad actors to ruin this entire thing and send us right back to the corporate run highly censored bullshit.
If I were religious this would be something I would legit pray about. Don’t fuck this up, please.
