sure, a company that has used petabytes of data they do not own any rights of to train their models are totally excluding their own customers data when turning a switch off.
yeah, I totally trust OpenAI and Microsoft with my data. It’s not like Microsoft is spying on me after turning of Windows telemetry either.
DE independent but it requires GTK4 and libadwaita. Maybe just call it a GTK GUI for Bluetooth?
it has to be enabled like a system service, so this is clearly a daemon.
is there a curl argument that can be used to block this behavior?
the architecture doesn’t contain something like Intel ME. but it’s MIT licensed and if Qualcomm, AMD or Intel decides to produce RISC-V chips they could (and probably will) use proprietary extensions and even include a ME-like coprocessor which locks down the whole thing.
I was going to say the same
this is an amazing obsidian alternative that I haven’t seen recommended yet! I always here about logseq but I don’t like it due to it’s bullet format. And this is just great. I wish they had an electron install option tho, but still pretty great.
XMPP is a must. I automatically discard tildes that host matrix but not XMPP.
no need for a restrictive license! people can just take an apk and slap ads or malware on top. they do it all the time with fake candy crush apks. So I’m pretty sure they won’t care about this license.
I think that in the license is just a excuse so no one is redistributing the app and they can make money from it.

barrel jacks are less likely to break, I’ve had laptops with barrel jack charging ports that are still working for 15 years but I’ve had two malfunctioning USB-C ports in phones that were less than 4 years old.
Can we ban posts promoting the use of proprietary software?
use a real operative system then
This is clearly biased. Your points against SearXNG are weak. And you purposefully ignore the huge privacy implications of needing an account to do searches.
I don’t think this is written by a bot, but I’d say it’s either a camouflaged ad or a rather biased article.
Edit: To be clear. I do not care that a certain company has a good privacy policy. I want verifiable facts, not unverifiable claims. Their backend is proprietary, while SearXNG is free software. There’s only one entity behind that company, which could be (or turn) malicious at any moment. Meanwhile, SearXNG is hosted by multiple individuals and organizations, you could even use a different instance each time, so it’s impossible to corelate your search queries.
So yeah, this is a rather biased article towards a certain company.
Google cloud consoles
those aren’t Firefox issues. it’s google purposefully using chromium only features and not well-supported web standards.
I don’t think so. They have commercial agreements with Microsoft that forces them to not block their trackers, so who knows what else they are obliged to by contract
For non-search tracker blocking (eg in our browser), we block most third-party trackers. Unfortunately our Microsoft search syndication agreement prevents us from doing more to Microsoft-owned properties. However, we have been continually pushing and expect to be doing more soon.
until you release that due to needing an account, all your search queries are tied to your account and even if they claim not to, it would be trivial for Kagi to associate all of them with you.
and we don’t have the code of their servers, we know nothing of how they handle this critical information, other than their “trust me bro”.
(and even if they are not directly associating this information, if they store some kind of logs, it would probably be trivial for any third party that gets access to their servers to make the association. an again, we know nothing about their procedures)
the only right suggestion here.
There’s still some value that “private” forks add to the list - you can see how well a tweaked Firefox can perform.
Specially relevant in this page because this test uses Firefox as is, without installing uBlock Origin, which is ultra basic advice for privacy. IMO they do this to benefit Brave, but whatever.
At least in the privacy community, Brave isn’t super popular. It feels more geared towards the “hyped crypto early adopters”. Brave inclusion in privacy guides has always been controversial.
Brave is ultimately an advertising company, they base their business model in ads. And everyone knows how bad that can turn.
Ungoogled Chromium on the other hand takes patches from brave and other Chromium based browsers, removing every bit of telemetry and giving you the cleanest experience you can get on Chromium, without relying on a shady company.
