  • Bugswriter is a chad, ha also built a script called tuxi that was really cool, but sadly now it's deprecated

  • It only gives minimal and "classic" sites, you can also add it on searxng

  • I don't understand the benefits of farside compared to LibRedirect

  • Qwant is just a bing frontend with a bit better privacy, bit they still share some infos:

    Why are you transferring data to Microsoft, and what data is it?

    Microsoft provides some of the search results you see on our pages, and provides ads to the keywords in your search inquiry. This means that we need to send Microsoft some information related to your search that allows our partner to return results and ads relevant to that search, and to prevent fraudulent clicks or other activities that are not permitted by our Terms of Use.

    In order to detect fraud, Qwant uses a specialized service offered by Microsoft, which does not have access to the keywords of your search. Only your IP address and the browser (your “User Agent”) are communicated to this specialized service to calculate a fraud probability score. Keywords are sent separately to another service that does not know your IP address.

    PS: The results are Bing's so they are biased

  • Why scaring?

  • Linux gas drivers in kernel, i have hardware that gas no need of anything else

  • Not linuxfx, it's a joke

  • I think some gentoo with "bare minimum to boot" bootloader, kernel and init would beat that

  • I just did it two days ago, had the same fears, everything went smooth like butter

  • You could install OpenSUSE in the partition that had zorin, overwriting the previous system.

  • I wouldn't agree, but I have no example in mind, so I agree (?)

  • Those are not private at all, whatsapp, as a protocol (so basically xmpp) is pretty good using E2E. Facebook/Meta collects your metadata, but not the messages.
