I would if it was another company than Google but I'm not going to support big tech companies with my money.

Google is tracking people all over the internet, and is one of the richest companies in the world. Now they want to get even more money? Right.

I'm paying for email and search but they are not from big tech.

They are not duplicated (just the same name) and it's not impossible to subscribe to them all with a few clicks.

Use https://lemmyverse.net/communities and simply search for communities and subscribe to them.

I expected the mug to have slack on it as well :)

But yeah, it's been quite a ride. I mean Linux in general has evolved so much over the years. My first test of Linux was from some floppy disk supplied by a magazine when I was a kid. These days I only use Linux since about 10 years back or so.

It's literally the only way to get away from big tech today.

Kagi is not only decent but much better. It's fantastic. I switched when it was new and never looked back.

Try a few searches with both Kagi and Google and you should see quite different results.

People still use Google? I thought many of us, and specially in tech using platforms like this, left it behind years ago. But maybe not as many as I think.

People who hurt animals or tease them to annoy them to get a good laugh. If I'm ever in a situation weather to save the animal or that person, the person does not get saved.

I find the lack of responses disturbing. :)

You must be like all other trans people or we can't put a label on you. Didn't you get the memo sent out from Trans Headquarters?

I think the reason is something much bigger than the American election. Just not sure what yet.

The election is rigged anyway. Choose between turd and asshole, both of which are selected by the establishment.

Until people can vote with cryptographically safe identity control, there is no reason to trust manual vote counting in my opinion.

Yes but why are we ok with that?

Why is it normal to have a giant American ad company know everything about your life, and billions of others?

Its not normal at all. We just got used to the status quo.

Many people associate this company with "the internet" even. It's sick.
