I find the results to be cleaner and more relevant at least. With Kagi the relevant link is usually first or second link (like Google used to be) and the same search on Google I sometimes have to scroll down about 3-4 pages till I get to something relevant. Worse some of the ads Google is pushing to the top are misleading or completely contrary to what I’m looking for.

Kagi allowing me to ban domains (bye bye pinterest) and boost others has also been pretty helpful.

In China or the US?

“I am not bought or paid for”… proceeds to give answer that conveniently aligns with big oil interests.

You can sign up for a trial with 100 searches.

As for what is good, searches tend to pull up relevant info that is not buried under a bunch of seo shit. You can block, downgrade, and upgrade domains (I have blocked Pinterest from all my search results for instance). It’s just a very good experience. And long term I feel more confident in their user experience since their profit motivation is not tied to serving you up ads.

My biggest complaint is the 300 searches a month seems a little low.

But give the 100 free searches a shot. I have been very happy with them.

Post is probably fake. Anyone that thought they were talking to another American WOULD just say 50 States, or all the States.

I reckon someone is using multiple accounts so they can “murder” something to make a point. I’m surprised they didn’t throw some metric stuff in their to really throttle the pretentiousness.

I was told the trolls stayed at Reddit. This one is such a low effort too. Try harder, troll better.

Don’t be too hard on them, maybe this was all that was available when they pulled up.

Well shit, guess I made some assumptions. Kind of kills even the mild fury.

Did Vince lose weight? He looks a lot better in this photo vs their last tour. Good for him if he did.

For what it’s worth, I got this while browsing their catalog in my music app. All the music under the pic was with Mick.

I seen that tour too. Alice was fucking awesome. So glad I got to see him. Was going to see him on the Frankenstein tour but it got canceled. They were playing with Judas Priest as well, which would have been fucking awesome. I never got to see Priest, but real happy I got to see Alice. Guy still puts up a great show.

For Motley Crue… Yeah Vince is fucking awful. Lol skipped every other word because he was out of breath and mumbled the rest. The YouTube videos just don’t do justice to how bad he is live. I thought Mick Mars was pretty good though. He could still shred on the guitar, which is amazing with the pain he played through.

By “removed” I mean they clearly photoshopped Mick out of this photo. I have no problem with Motley Crue continuing on without him (other than Vince Neil being fucking awful). But take some new photos with the current band for fucks sake. Shopping a longtime band mate out is disrespectful, shitty, and mildly infuriating. Especially since he retired due to a painful and crippling disease.

If they were wanting to use current photos of the band, shouldn’t Vince look like ?

I mean… At least the people using TikTok WANT to see that type of content. At least they know their audience and aren’t trying to push their garbage on me.

I wouldn’t try to argue that TikTok is not a shitty company (they are!), but personally most of their bullshit doesn’t affect me since they are an uninstalled app. YouTube trying to push this shitty format on me on the other hand is aggravating.

Tiktok users are actively seeking that type of content, where with YouTube shorts they are trying to push the stuff on people that aren’t interested in it (if they were, they’d be on tiktok). That’s my take on what they’re saying. Seems a reasonable take.

Man, fuck these thumbnails.

Taco John’s should be able to pick one of the bells slogans now… Think outside the bun… run for the border… Live Mas…

It’s only fair.

Right here I reckon. Reddit is pretty well covered here.

Reminded me of this.

So many Google things get half assed and then never get updated. I used an iPad today and it was kind of crazy having the autofill service just work. On Android I always need to click between user and password several times, do a long hold to select autofill and have THAT do nothing. Do a long sigh, open up Bitwarden and copy the password and return to the app only to find the autofill popup offering to fill in the password now. It’s been that bad since day 1 and is pathetic they have never updated what would be such a nice feature.

So yeah, I’d agree sometimes they are pretty incompetent.

As toxic as Reddit is, it is a huge wealth of information if you can search and parse it. It also encourages small niche topics that wouldn’t get any attention without a huge audience to draw from. If Reddit is no longer going to feed that role, I hope SOMEPLACE becomes that kind of place in the future. If it’s the Fediverse nothing stops instances from creating smaller communities within it. Could be best of both worlds. Or it could ruin it. I guess I don’t know.
