  I was trying to read this while driving, but there wasn’t enough contrast between the white text and the light gray cat 😿

  What specifically do you think is hard to avoid? I’ve never accidentally triggered a quick answer, personally

  Paying for access to Yandex APIs is a product of their goal to be the best search engine available. They pay for access to nearly every major search provider and wouldn’t want to lose access to Yandex results just because of the country they’re located in.

  Personally, it’s the only search engine I haven’t wanted to get away from

  I think the majority of people on Lemmy don’t want to be served an AI-generated feed about AI. Maybe try a more AI- or LLM-focused community?

  Dumbphones are ridiculously insecure, and they only support SMS communications which don’t have any end-to-end encryption.

  The thundermail domains are thundermail.com and tb.pro. I’m curious to see how they will compare to the top privacy-respecting email providers today, and how they think they will “provid[e] a better service than the other providers out there,” which would include Protonmail, Tutanota, etc.
