Google’s dominance on search is declining – for the first time ever!

  • Qwant or Ecosia.

    • In the most delicious irony imaginable, the notorious early 2000s 'You wouldn't steal a car' anti-piracy campaign may have used an 'illegal' font

  • And so would they I suppose. It crosses generations!

    • ‘You Can’t Lick a Badger Twice’: Google Failures Highlight a Fundamental AI Flaw

  • What? Why is that?

    • Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads | TechCrunch

  • But then users use it anyway for some reason. Many people care so little.

    • Firefox, VLC, Gimp, KeePass, LibreOffice among open source software endorsed by French Government

  • Firefox offers a real alternative to chrome derivatives. I think it’s what we need to go for too.

    • The first folding e-reader is smaller than a paperback

  • Yeah that’s great but I really don’t want OLED on an ereader.

    • Lenovo now ship with Fedora

  • I’m not that surprised. I believe it costs less on itself but there might be a surcharge for installation.

    • Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government

  • Nothing in this message indicates that is the case.

    • Germany opposes French push to tax US big tech in tariff war

  • There absolutely are. And many pay out of their nose for crap they don’t need and is overpriced just because everyone is doing it.

    • Right-wing Christian podcaster claims that airport body scanners can turn you gay

  • Orrrr drink a ton of it!

    • What If We Made Advertising Illegal?

  • All you said might be true. But still, ads work. So well even that we run millions of websites from their earnings. Don’t even start on shows and sports. It’s insane.

    • You can stop asking where the mass opposition is. It's everywhere.

    • Which Browser Should I Use In 2025? - Hackaday

  • How is it different or better?

    • Kudos to Nvidia

  • How can it be a skill issue if you did nothing?

    • Poll Has AOC Leading Schumer by Nearly 20 Points in 2028 New York Primary

  • Also her politics though. They’re pretty good.

    • Not paying.

  • It’s over 9000 by now.

    • Howard Lutnick Insults European Meat in Bizarre Fox News Rant: ‘Our Beef Is Beautiful and Theirs Is Weak’

  • These weird fucks. I’ve never heard beef being referred to as beautiful or weak.

    • DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase in Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse

  • In theory it is a horrible idea. No port like this ever works out. An incremental approach has much higher chance of success but will take long.

    • The fediverse has a bullying problem

  • It’s perhaps a communication problem, where the privacy settings should clearly state this. Or these settings shouldn’t be offered. But maybe this current structure is fine for most people?

    Regardless, it’s how existing social media used to work. In that sense, federated social media can’t offer an alternative and that could be a problem for some.

    • Which brands do actually care about a healthy customer relationship more than profit?

  • The wording can be improved, I think “maximising profit” would fix it. Which is obviously what OP meant as we all understand it.
