Thanks. This looks like it’s for PC, though. Apologies, I wrongly assumed talking about “trophies” would’ve implied I was talking about PlayStation. My bad.
Yeah I had SearXNG running via a Docker container and it was pretty good. I didn’t like having to use a domain name and expose it over the internet though, because Docker is running on my NAS. I guess I could give it another try using Cloudflare tunnels so I don’t have to open anything up.
My 100-search trial expired this week and I was literally planning on subscribing later tonight. This has made me think twice.
But it takes me back to why I tried Kagi in the first place: What else can I use that respects privacy?
I don’t think any of them do completely. DuckDuckGo uses Bing, so is Microsoft; Google is… well, Google; Brave is apparently really shady; I’ve never thought much of the results from Bing directly. Startpage seemed ok but apparently uses Google.
What else?
I also like something to be integrated into the browser. As a Mac user, I can’t add new search engines to Safari (and have actually switched to Orion, but may now switch to Firefox or back to Safari).
No, we don’t have Apple Cash here in the UK for some reason.
If I go to the App Store on either my iPhone or Mac and click on my profile pic, I can see I have a balance. Because I selected Apple Store credit when I traded in my Mac it just credited my Apple ID with money.
If possible I’d like to transfer it out of there, to buy software directly from the respective websites for Swish and Transmit.
The Apple integration is probably the main reason I use Safari I think; the likes of Apple Pay, Touch ID/Face ID all just works. I’d love that ability in Firefox and then I’d probably use it exclusively.
Yeah I feel you, it’s a tad frustrating. But a first world problem I guess. I just thought it was an obvious continuity feature to have as part of the Apple ecosystem.
Yeah I use that feature all the time; if I’ve been out running or for a walk listening on my iPhone, I’ll often hold my phone next to my HomePod in the kitchen or bedroom and seamlessly carry on playback. And it works great. I just assumed it would be equally easy to implement it from Mac to iPhone.
I did try that amount several other things but it didn’t make a difference.
I eventually fixed this by simply opening the Mail app on the Watch. Something as simple as that. Wonder whether by doing so I just triggered something. Who knows.
