I really wouldn't be surprised if Google did this though.

Plus, wouldn't it be an easy PR win for them to set the record straight.

For me these days, Google is guilty until proven innocent.

I recommend Kagi at every opportunity, but am sometimes afraid of people assuming its astroturfing like this and not my real opinion.

Thank Google for killing xmpp.

The amount teams sucks justifies using something else.

The first messenger without user IDs

Other apps have user IDs: Signal, Matrix, Session, Briar, Jami, Cwtch, etc. SimpleX does not, not even random numbers.

This radically improves your privacy.

People just... go to watch executions?

I don't know if matrix checks all of these boxes yet... but a discord contender built on matrix would be a dream.

A good start that allows you to pin/ban sites from search results, order by least ad trackers, search the small web, and more:

https://kagi.com/

Its paid, which can be seen as ridiculous but for me it helps me be confident im not the product.

The graph literally demonstrates the enshittification.

By default I was thinking site. But for sites with huge variances in page quality you'd need it by page/article as you say.

Are you tracked down to 10 minute intervals at your job?

Don't allow sites in the index by default, use an allowlist.

Agreed, but its not perfect. I recall but couldn't recover a link to a story about some application bypassing android or iPhone permissions.

Another big recent flaw allowed apps without the permission to draw over other apps.

Software is imperfect and you shouldn't trust that future updates will not add that ability.

Being an introvert who's great at socializing means you don't have problems socializing but it drains your energy.

Strong assumptions can sometimes get in the way of understanding.

For instance you say "I'm in the middle of work, why would they interrupt me".

There seems to be a strong assumption that the other person believes as you do that getting work done is the most important thing at work.

In my experience though, forming relationships for future connections and ensuring work is tolerable to enjoyable is more important to most than getting work done.

I feel like limiting or discouraging them would really hurt adoption.

Many times people share their use cases.

If someone with similar use cases finds out "wait, it us possible for me yo use Linux?" they could become tomorrow's post.

I agree. I literally just journaled 1000 words because of a very small issue I fixated on that a larger issue was hiding behind.

Took 15 min, but now i'm productive again.

Don't look at the list when anxious ;)

What I mean is I set up text to speech to read items scheduled on my todo list.

So if stuck on couch, I hear the todo read out loud.

This is 95% effective medicated, 10-60% unmedicated.

The other thing I found is the overwhelm comes from so many things.

Experiment with only letting 1, 3, 5 etc items be visible at a time. I sometimes go as far as saying top 3 are must do, 12 or however many remaining are optional.

Also also play your favorite video game sound like Mario coin when a todo is completed.

This seems pretty reasonable IMO. What are biggest reasons 40 hour week won't happen for senior leadership?
