I don't see the point of Duckduckgo browser in a world where Firefox exists.

The problem with Google is that it integrates with many different services. Google doesn't just know what you searched online. It can also link your search history with your payments, the videos you watched or your gps location. It aggregates everything about you in one place.

Duckduckgo can't do that. Fragmentation of services is great.

I am really disturbed by what Duckduckgo has been doing lately. That being said, they are better than Google.

It's not marginally better. It's objectively much better.

Having an open source client has huuuuge advantages. Here is one: I can download Telegram client from F-Droid, which reduces my dependency on Google Play Store.

Telegram is used by somewhere between half to a full billion people. It's impact on open source is massive.

 

Actually, they are cracking down on account and password sharing. Which is the same thing.

 

It looks like Netflix lost around 700,000 customers in Russia, which is making their numbers look bad. They expect to lose 2.5 million more customers.

Let's hope it continues.

 

In themean time 5.18rc2 is already out!

 

Openstretmaps was a little outdated around where I live. I have been making a lot of edits and updates lately. I know they will be pulled in with the next update, but just wondering if I can get them earlier.

 

Lemmygrad has more traffic than most other instances and drowning everything else in my "All" feed. Is there a way to remove them from my "All" feed?
