My bad then. I very much associate bolded bullet points with LLMs. :)

Sorry if I’m wrong, but your post reads suspiciously like it was written by ChatGPT.
No it doesn’t. I run older versions of some software. I plan to switch to linux once macos gives out.
Hahha GregSearX I love it!
I’ve used searX in the past and found it was decent but personally I am going to stick with duckduckgo because it just works better for my needs (especially since I’m on mobile).
Wait really?
Best I could find was this arstechnica article from 2022:
Microsoft trackers run afoul of DuckDuckGo, get added to blocklist: Search privacy company still needs Bing, but won't allow Microsoft's trackers. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/08/microsoft-trackers-run-afoul-of-duckduckgo-get-added-to-blocklist/
And Searx is the same. And startpage is just google.
But the point is they don’t track.
Honestly IMO, carrying cameras around is really burdensome and I usually always have my camera when I don’t need it and never have it when I do!
I wish I had just waited and upgraded to a phone with a better camera.
Obviously if you want to make a genuine hobby where you spend hours a week taking pics it’s a different question.
But a phone with an okay camera + borrowing my friends one when I really wanna get some high quality pics (rare) (which is what I do now that I sold my camera) was a much better use of money IMO.
I have an ancient (10+ years old) macbook pro running with a Jellyfin server and qBitorrent and a VPN and it works great!
No complaints. (I also have a 2 TB harddrive plugged into it).
Kind of fucked up but tbf Google does similarly shady stuff.
Please just use duckduckgo (or SearX).
I honestly have no idea. I didn’t think of this. Just was replying to your original criticism with a possible fix.
But the reason he gives for them becoming the dominant species is their intelligence.
