Is that real, or a misinterpretation of the law?

I meant to say SearXNG. Still being maintained.

I've tried SearXNG and stayed there. And it costs me a whole 0€ per month. 10€/month for a search engine is insane.

Wasn't Google in the middle of an antitrust investigation?

Yeah, in the end I managed to make it work. Quite cool. I wanted to set it up in such a way that all EU SEs get a tick every time I search for something but sadly it seems Startpage is giving me issues.

It's one of those apps where you can't go by the reviews.

Basically they changed the interface quite a bit recently and so old customers got upset. But I use the app daily and they are seriously improving it to the point that I'm relying less and less on Google Maps. They keep adding more and more business details to the app.

If we were having this conversation a few months ago I would have said something different, so really the Improvements have been noticeable lately. I recommend that you give it a go for a couple of days at least and see how it serves you.

For my Americans across the pond, I ask earnestly:

What could Russia do today that would cement themselves as an unparalleled oligarchy where just a few people control everything with no regard for anybody else in their country, that the US isn't already doing?

Yep, this is the explanation. People are still trying to rationalize "why do this in months, its all gonna collapse!" not understanding that collapse is the actual point.

Hey!

For storage/note taking I use Filen.io (German), pretty cool and affordable. Have no complaints, and they have a Linux native app also.

Seriously. I'd be ashamed of being a Trump supporter and show my face in public. So embarrassing.

And even more so now that it's pretty clear that he's barely sentient and Musk is the actual poorly hidden shadow president.

All excellent recommendations too. Hats off to Proton!

What's up with everyone in this comment section shilling registrars with abysmal customer reviews? Lol. The only one that even has remotely good reviews is Mythic Beasts.

Anyways, I'd like to recommend IONOS (German). Their service has been flawless so far, and I haven't seen any reports of bad customer either.
