Why would we need them to switch? Shouldn't we just leave them be if they're happy that way?

Unfortunately Gecko was in the process of being significantly rewritten when Vivaldi had to choose an engine.

That's true, they don't. But they're at least open enough to allow community efforts on Linux like Heroic.

This is why I primarily shop at GOG. There are almost no other storefronts left that promote DRM-free games.

The aftermath of the conflict you referred to in your previous comment.

Waiting for a conflict to arise just leaves you with a fractured community in the aftermath.

There are legitimate reasons for creating an entire instance for a specific fandom. Independence from other instances and their federation decisions is a big one.

Kagi has started using search results from Brave's search index. The LGBT community disapproved of this because of past homophobic actions by Brave's CEO Brendan Eich.

I don't think so. Wiby limits its index to specific kinds of websites by design.

I imagine it's great for entertainment purposes, but not for the things you'd usually use a search engine for (gathering information, troubleshooting issues, etc.)

Are we expecting normal people to learn how to self-host?

What will be replacing it? Bing?

Kagi has recently started getting part of its search results from Brave's search index. That's literally all there is to it.

I'm really happy with Kagi. The fact that I can blacklist certain domains from showing up in search results is chef's kiss.

Back when I switched from Google to DuckDuckGo, I found myself occasionally using the !g bang to fall back to Google results. So far I haven't felt the need once in Kagi.

"Bad" rich people are dismissed because Lemmy users expect this behavior of them. What they don't expect or believe in is someone genuinely using their wealth for good.

"If God is all powerful, he cannot be all good. And if he is all good, then he cannot be all powerful"

Sorry if it's a dumb question, but why not just change your account password to something you'd use for a pass database?

Getting a valid email address, being registered on Discord for more than five minutes and being present in the server for longer than ten minutes takes, you guessed it, 15 minutes.

If you ban someone from your Discord server for harassing other members, they can be back at it after 15 minutes. How do you deal with that?

How else are we supposed to tell of our positive experiences?

What the person using those links does not realize is that a Creative Commons license relaxes restrictions rather than imposing additional ones.

Everything you create is already protected by copyright by default. If you publish an essay and don't append any license to it, nobody may republish or remix that essay without your permission, unless an exception like fair use applies. The exact restrictions will depend on local laws.

By using a Creative Commons license, you choose to forgo some of those copyright protections. Thus the comments of the person you replied to are actually less protected than yours or mine.

I don't understand this sentiment. We know that, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't get excited over it.

Most potential contributors are on GitHub.

It's yet another instance of the network effect.
