Icarus,

what about wordpress.com ? (yeah, it’s different but by the same developers)

Icarus,

If google is giving out top level domains for free now then it is a market dominance strategy because nobody else can do it I think.

I don’t they do, they only give free subdomains

Icarus,

maybe they meant adding domains for free, most free hosts don’t allow you to use custom domains for free and require a paid plan for that. so could be that OP is willing to pay for the domain itself but not for using it, which is fair

Icarus,

You can still install it manually by downloading the extension file.

except on android :(

Google (search engine) alternatives?

Hi! I’m trying to find a Google alternative, tried duck duck go but found it very lacking, both in results and interface (not showing the date on the links, for example, that’s useful). Obviously don’t wanna go the bing route. Any recommendations? Also, sorry if this is not the right place to ask, I didn’t know where!...

Icarus,

just don’t pay attention to the crypto stuff, but otherwise it’s alright. it gets its results from other search engines

Icarus,

that’s only for iOS/MacOS

Icarus,

agreed, although the fact that you can’t block brave’s crawler (if I had to guess, I’d say they’re probably using the same user-agent as Google to disguise their crawler) and they give “rights” to the data is a bit troubling. also maybe the API doesn’t include the citations ? in any case, it is suspicious they managed to make such a good search engine in so short a time, there is more than meets the eye…

DRM removal tool was taken down from github. If you can, please download it from gitlab before its taken down too

The DRM removal tool to remove DRM from ebooks was taken down from github and will most likely be taken down from gitlab soon as well. The more archives we have the better so im sharing the gitlab in hopes some Datahoarder types will archive it and keep it shared via torrents etc gitlab.com/bipinkrish/DeGourou...

Icarus,

for visibility, also codeberg is quite hostile to piracy related tools and whatnot, gitea is quite small not many instances and it gets unwanted attention. if they self-host, that’s even more risky because domain names, hosting etc can get tracked down to the owner. decentralized solutions are the best for these kind of things

Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I...

Icarus,

most of the links don’t even work and the ones that work are terrible, why so many upvotes ?

Icarus,
Icarus,

so does this run automatically ? without the user doing anything ?

Icarus,

is the bug with “active” sorting fixed ?

Icarus,

I think localstorage is not accessible from incognito mode, they might be using that

Icarus,

something to use, also this is an old post lol 🙃. I eventually settled on codeberg but I’m open to suggestions
