  • So yah, the social media manager or marketing agency is getting paid. People organically posting because they genuinely like the service, aren't. The former would be advertising. The later not.

    Can you point to any accounts you think are doing Kagi astroturfing. IE being paid to advertise with. Because now it just sounds like you're speculating.

  • If they aren't paying anyone is it advertising? I'm not sure what you're actually talking about anymore. Maybe I never did

  • In retrospect yes, my comment could be seen as a positive. That wasn't my intent.

  • Should I ask them about being paid? I've been doing it for free all this time.

  • I've never seen her be anything but a nakedly power hungry, political hack. She's tried to sell herself as both a progressive and conservative liberal, depending on who she's talking to. I wouldn't doubt if sher looses again, she'll go Republican.

  • She's always seemed very politically flexible to me.

  • I associate the word with money related activities

    That's a good thing. It costs money to provide services to people. The Fediverse is no different.

  • I'm not sure they do at all. There are just a bunch of Kagi users here.

  • There is a difference between probably backdored, and we're not event trying to look secure anymore.

  • They do all the national testing and data collections for determining school rankings.

    Which I think is the main thing they want to get rid of. They've said that all the school funding functions can be handed to other departments. But it's all the states with religious curriculum requirements that frequently do poorly on the rankings. And us in New Mexico. But by eliminating the DOE that data collection and ranking will stop.

  • I can agree. I'm donating to both, because more options is better. But really I'm pulling for Servo. It's silly nostalgic sentimentality. But I like the idea of it's traceable lineage back to Mosaic.

  • They have a functioning "light weight" browser people can use for testing. And honestly, wrapping all the browser features around an engine, is very much the easy part. That's why there are so many browsers with so few rendering engines.

  • That's exactly how not to encourage people to be better.
    Wouldn't you like for him to be better? Or are you just more comfortable in a black and white world of, once bad always bad?

  • Guy does the right thing and you call him an asshole for it.

  • Politics isn't a one dimensional spectrum. We use terms like left, right, and center. But that ignores other directions like up and down, forward and back.

    Forward doesn't mean center. Open primaries for example. Both Republicans and Democrats fight against them. Are open primaries Left or Right? Or something else?

    The truth is neither of our parties are responsive to the people. Democrats proved it in the last nomination, basically ignoring anyone that wasn't Biden/Harris. Republicans are proving it now, in their refusal to do town halls. Supporting a party that's literally being built to respond bottom up, rather than top down; And isn't beholden to the traditional media driven, overly simplistic "Left" "Right" duopoly, can only be a good thing.

    This video may help.
