Most people have already written the most things, being passionate and explaining well, but for me it is - I do not interact much, if I dont have anything new to add, I usually don't, If I got interested enough to comment, then I must have something to speak on it, and if no one else has (I first search for other comments, If I find same stuff, I just upvote their comment and move on) then I am past a threshold where I can write something long.

Maybe I dont count, but I was a reddit mild lurker, I would check something like r/memes every week, and also r/linux with similar frequency, and learnt about lemmy close to reddit API stuff, and made a lemmy account sometime after

I agree, those are just 2 examples of people doing fact finding, idea is someone will post something, and other lemmings will do what people in the video did

I completely agree with you, and what i wrote was in haste, essentially, what i wanted to say, was that an individual running searxng does not provide the anonymity benefits you would get by using some public instance, but it it still better because you are not directly using google or whatever website, and now searxng kinda acts like a browser between you and them, which does limited conversation - there aren't any js based fingerprinting. I also use searxng locally, i cant stand the constant rate limiting of public servers, or sometimes only a few engines are blocked, and variation in result quality is unacceptable to me. I just wanted to add that bit for transparency,

If you are on a desktop, you can run it locally, you are much less likely to be rate limited, but this comes at cost of your ip being still visible to google or whatever search engine you choose to scrape from

I never even considered that, but can you please cite it?

 

Original idea for this community came from @kibiz0r@midwest.social who in comments of this post gave ideas for many new communities.

This community also serves as a "Do the Maths" community or " explainer"

Currently the community is very small so the fact finding may be slow, perhaps as it grows it can be fast fact finding ninja

 

This video was a scrapped part of research for the actual video The Tale of Tiffany, but it goes through Grey's research work of trying to find source of poem, and when was it first written.

spoilerDoes not go that well

can i make these, since technically these are your ideas, i am definitely interested in lemmy_check. I believe lemmy_know is very close to c/ask

This is an article I wrote. Sorry mods if it is not allowed I checked the sidebar rules, and closest was no ads, and I do not know if this qualifies for that (I do not have ads or analytics on the page)

Edit - Thanks to @utopiah@lemmy.ml for recommendations. I have now Included an image and a video demo of using the script, and also got syntax highlighting

Edit 2 - I have chnaged my keys for password, so dont worry about that, and about low quality and stuttering video playback, that was just network being poor at that time, also i forgot to give a demo of calculator and web searching, forgive me for that, and if you want, instead of term-dmenu, you can use fzf directly, and you would not leave terminal
