some subscriptions are fine though, like email or a vpn.

you could argue there should be no need for a vpn but… it is what it is

does it use staan in every country (unlike qwant and ecosia, for now)?

cus those search results seem quite good, maybe even better than qwant (which i use)

if this is what staan is like, i’m very much hyped for the rollout for qwant and ecosia :)

qwant :)

people here really don’t know how to do memes

most of the time the meme is either 5-15+ years old or the meme format is horribly butchered

i really don’t understand why though

god forbid someone likes a certain type of video game

“μTorrent became controversial in 2015 when many users unknowingly accepted a default option during installation which also installed a cryptocurrency miner.”

pretty much everyone has moved on to qBittorrent

most instances do tho, no?

it’s not an “annoying cookie banner warning”, it’s a paywall (lol that sounded so AI i promise im not chatgpt)

you either pay with money or your privacy

tacos

USbara

your source literally said it aims to only use their own index for 33% of german queries and 50% of french queries by the end of 2025.

so 67% of german and 50% of french queries would use bing.

that it uses bing?

i am tho

“Last year, French privacy-focused search engine Qwant struck a joint venture with German non-profit search engine Ecosia to develop a European search index. Called European Search Perspective (EUSP), the JV now aims to serve around 50% of French queries and 33% of German queries by the end of the year”

so not all queries yet unfortunately

source?

in finnish it’s still “peking”

this meme is so old bro is probably retired at this point
