there will be a lot of people left behind, as most can’t afford to donate or subscribe.
They do fall behind either way. If you can’t afford it, your privacy is exploited and you pay by being targeted by ads (if you don’t know your ways around it).

Three of my friends are using Apple devices, but I still accept them. Everyone has it’s quirk.
Someone has a different opinion than you. Quick, insult them!
Valid question, fuck those downvoters.
Using Kagi is not a bad decision. After reading a lot of positive things about it and beeing quite hyped, I was so ungently reminded, that every good thing comes with its own baggage of bad.
I thought I share it, so that everyone can make their own decision.
I also tried Metager, a german meta search engine. Sad to report: not usable for me, although I like their club (suma-ev) and donated some money towards them.
For now it’s DDG I guess. :-(
If your goal is to get away from this AI shit show, Kagi might not be the answer, according to their own blog.
I will search for a very interesting article you should read, before deciding to give kagi any money.
Edit: found it
In Germany you are only allowed to shoot your pulse laser with 24 giga-watt max. I guess it’s an EU law, so should be the same for all of europe.
E.g. in germany it is not allowed to fly over private property with a drone (equipped with a camera), no matter the height. You have to stay above offical streets. And maximum flight hight is 120 m, if I remember correctly.
I guess it’s EU law, so it should be simmilar in other EU countries.
Thanks for the linked blogpost about Kagi! That saved me a lot of money.
It really changed my mind about it… I want to support a privacy focused search engine, not an AI-loving mess without focus on their core product.
I will have a look at MetaGer next. Although I am sad that there is still no good original search engine with it’s own results… Still all depending on Google and Microsoft.
Piwigo loocks great. How does it compare to Immich?
I am using it to communicate with 3 people (our common ground as I don’t have an iPhone and don’t use Whatsapp).
A few years ago it felt a bit ruff and awkward to use, but many updates later it is as fluent as any chat app.
The security feels ok. Of course it would be a lot better, if they would open source their code.
That sounds like a great idea.
At the moment I am using Openmediavault as a VM within proxmox - I pass my HDDs through to this VM. Openmediavault let’s me do all the stuff I want to: Share folders via SSH, NFS and raid-management.
Do you know if I can do the same with proxmox directly? Do you maybe have a link where this way is described in detail?
What is a Google?
Same here, I really like driving, it can be fun and (sometimes) relaxing and there is no better place to sing along to some songs.
At the same time I try to avoid driving as much as possible, I take the bike, walk, take the train, no matter the weather. I don’t want to be one of those cars sitting at the red light, using up space, polluting the environment and giving our local parties the idea, that we need that one more lane.
Some things are more important than a few convenient minutes.
It’s hard to relate, because I wouldn’t even know if there are businesses in my area which only use facebook - because I don’t use facebook.
I wanted to use a business that wanted me to send them pictures of my drive way via Whatsapp. I ended up taking my business to a different guy, who was able to work with mail. No harm done, everyone is still happy, still no need for Meta products.
Edit: of course I acknowledge that I don’t know anything about you or your situation. You maybe really can’t work/live without facebook.
You are absolutely right of course, I was a bit sarcastic in the comment above. I firmly belive that the pursuit of a more convenient live will be our downfall - in terms of privacy, but also e.g. in terms of traffic (cars are very convenient but shouldn’t be the future for the masses).
It is easier to live without facebook, than you think.
Yes, it is easier for you to continue using Whatsapp. At least you tried.
I heard rumours that there was a giant animal involved in the making of Linus Torvalds. So please refer to him as GNU/Linus, or GNU+Linus.
Neither solution is fair for some people. Being tempted into using your privacy as a currency, because you don’t have much money shouldn’t even be an option.
