It cannot - more and more content is coming from AI so they are just “relearning” what one of the AI platforms has already produced… the endgame of that is convergence on nothing new being produced from AI

Not OP but for me just having it support macOS autocorrect in the browser would be great… I can literally load any other browser and my typed shortcuts (eg if it type @ @ (without the space in between) it gets auto replaced with my email address) just work… not Firefox though 🤷🏻‍♂️

I bought my iMac in March 2020… since then it’s been powered down maybe half a dozen times (a couple of those were power cuts) and rebooted (outside of macOS updates) maybe ten times.

It just sits there reliably doing its thing and sucks little juice in power saving so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sentiment is fine, but it’s still removing a choice (however misguided, in some people’s views, that is) from the user

They still a thing? Not sure they’re that common in the UK at least 🤷🏻‍♂️

You sort of didn’t read my whole post and just looked at the last bit - I pay for excellent search results with Kagi, the fact it’s also private (because I pay) is a bonus. However for local searches, I find Kagi is a bit US centric, so a simple !g bang operator gives me a private search through Google which still excels at these types of things… for anyway, who knows what Kagi has up their sleeves 🤷🏻‍♂️

A VPN with Google would still give me rubbish Google search results and marginal privacy against Google’s algorithms (their fingerprinting likely knows it’s me anyway), and I’d need to keep switching it on and off to make full use of my 1gb/s cable internet speed.

When it came down to it I realised I use search many many many mores times a day than I do Netflix so it became a no brainer for me to use Kagi… it’s funny my wife (who laughs at me for paying for search) was looking for a particular recipe yesterday and she was bouncing around Google unable to find exactly what she wanted… I put it into Kagi and it was literally the first item returned. She still laughs at me 🤷🏻‍♂️

What I will say is Kagi is pretty useless for local searching though, eg looking for a local business, Google is still much better at that but you can Google through Kagi to help protect privacy.

Clunge

Another vote for Kagi here as well… except for searching for local businesses near where I live, I revert to Google for that, but I Google through Kagi so privacy is somewhat protected

But then you potentially lose fringe interest videos which the creator makes for fun, only expects a thousand views from people with similar fringe interests and isn’t interested in being paid

Right so what browser should I use now??? 😡

And macOS autocorrect would be nice as well

Aren’t we already doing that though with Mastodon, Lemmy etc?

I’ve been using Kagi for a while and would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone BUT with the caveat if you want to search for a local business or similar, at least here in the UK, then it’s pretty rubbish… I find Google still reigns at that.

Watched it at the cinema here in the UK, it’s been in out in other countries for a while, have a look at the IMDB entry…

The recent French language movie was absolutely superb as well, one of my favourite movies I’ve ever seen (as long as you can handle subtitles)

Don’t know if I “missed the joke” but it’s not an English word…

Any good guides out there please on getting started with these…?
