  • this service claims:

    "Ad based search engines make almost $300 a year off their users.

    Google generated $76 billion in US ad revenue in 2023. Google had 274 million unique visitors in the US as of February 2023.

    To estimate the revenue per user, we can divide the 2023 US ad revenue by the 2023 number of users: $76 billion / 274 million = $277 revenue per user in the US or $23 USD per month, on average! That means there is someone, somewhere, a third party and a complete stranger, an advertiser, paying $23 per month for your searches."

    • What kinds of things from reddit would you like to see Lemmy avoid as the user base grows?

  • this seems to be a good place to mention avoiding groupthink and trendy opinions. more fresh diverisity and bold independent thinkers.
    a flood of general americans would be worse than cultivating a niche counterculture initial userbase.

  • it's been i have seen it pushing link tracking into their html(non-js) site. that has prompted me to quit. i'm using qwant for the time being although it kinda sucks for things that i research.
    i use a searx instance(google) for one of my browsers on mobile.
    the best solution is going to have to be to build something custom.
