I don’t know the full story about how Microsoft is developing Bing, but I do know that Google made a conscious decision to make their search results worse, simply so that you’d search more times, which for them translates to additional ad revenue. But, my sense is Bing hasn’t gone this far yet.

At this point I’ve been using DDG for 7 years as my main search engine. It’s gotten better while Google has become a joke.

I got walking pneumonia last year. Took some antibiotics and got rid of it, but it basically brought back my childhood asthma. I’ve been stuck with it for about 10 months now. Really eye opening to me how long it has lasted.

Haha, you’re right. And here I was, thinking Biden would get the credit for the ceasefire and Trump would get the blame when it fails.

Reagan paid the Iranians to hold the hostages til after the election.

Loops isn’t ready yet for the big time, still a beta.

A Fediverse Alternative to TikTok

In the last few months i really gotten into the whole Fediverse thing, but i noticed that, despite it being the most popular Social Media Platform, there isn't a TikTok alternative. I know there is Loops, but it's not open source or federated yet, so it's not really an option. Why is that?
