Is fractional scaling still ass in Linux? I tried manjaro, elementary os, and Linux Mint a couple of years ago and that bugged me the most.

So most people use Stremio with debrid, debrid caches torrents for you (without seeding) on their servers. With that you can stream blu ray remuxes (80 - 100 gb files) without downloading them and no vpn is required since it’s https encrypted from their servers. It turns into a combination of all the streaming services

Shouldn’t the complaint be about real debrid then? People just want convenience, buying a bunch of hard drives setting up jellyfin getting a vpn waiting for things to download when you want to watch something is annoying. Paying 35 dollars for a year of hassle free easy to setup high quality streaming is an amazing deal to most.

I know the search is not but I thought the browser was on GitHub

Personally I don’t want to support Microsoft bing either. This website you shared doesn’t lump together all the bing using search engines (DuckDuckGo and yahoo). How is supporting Microsoft a wayyy better choice. This isn’t some pump and dump scheme. Your criticism should be of the company (they added referall links to their browser and the owner has some nasty political takes on top of running another privacy invasive company).

I agree they were, but that’s the benefits of open source you can call out companies for doing stupid shit. Just like when Mozilla adds unnecessary telemetry.

I would use Kagi if it was free. It might be run by crypto bros but doesn’t mean it’s a bad product. Google and bing own 99% of the search engine market. Competition that doesn’t rely on those two is always good

Nope, like it used to index from google but now it doesn’t. DuckDuckGo gets all its results from bing

Brave search is independent. It was trained with google search but now it’s a thing of its own and doesn’t rely on google. I switched from DuckDuckGo a year ago and haven’t looked back
