My biggest surprise was learning there are gay and Trans Republicans. Like, how does that even work? unless you are trying to demonstrate people what irony looks like, it is big brain time.

It does not have a login, no votes,no comments. The IP points to somewhere in Lithuania, so I don't think so. I could have added a rotating IP pool but I was a little bit lazy and didn't think it was worth the effort.

I haven't deleted my account but then I was a lurker so the account is not much to look at 🙃. I uninstalled my third party app (infinity). I have a self-hosted libreddit account and use that to anonymously watch the site burn with my large bucket of 🍿.

I host an instance of searxng and I am quite happy with it. It displays results of a combination of engines. If you want to spin up your own, I have a blog that explains how to do in basic steps : https://mustafacanyucel.com/blog/blog-13.html

For news aggregation and summary, I totally agree with you. For just search indexing and referring, though, I think paying just for a link that is no more than 10 words is not justified. If I post a link in this comment from a Canadian news site, should I pay a fee, too? Because section 2 part b states that access to the news content, or any portion of it, is facilitated by any means, including an index, aggregation or ranking of news content.
