What does this mean in practice? You don’t get a post-caffeine crash if you take it together with L-theanine?

ok, so seems like I will have to use a double bang then. It does not seem match ddg bangs 1:1 though. And some don’t seem to be working correctly on my instance (E.g. !!mc for metacritic redirects to the wrong page)
I use the closest one to me from searx.space. I suppose hosting an instance yourself will give you the best response times, but it always still takes a moment while it searches through multiple search engines. If you only care about the results of one engine (e.g. google) then you could disable the others. Might speed it up a bit.
I didn’t know that, very useful. I suppose this is only for using other search engines like google, bing, etc… right?
Or can it also search immediately on other websites like metacritic, rotten tomatoes by using bangs?
Ublacklist works with searx? Good to know, I want to try this myself.
Your search results must be so clean and useful.
That’s why I still prefer searx. Duck duck go is basically just Bing results, right?
Seems like you also have the option to use the open source mixtral and llama3 models.
Also, if all the requests from their users go through their api request, i suppose is much more private than using your own account.
I’m not sure how they plan to monetise this though. Ai chat is not that cheap actually.
Oh, so it shows up between your search results? Sounds pretty horrible. Good that it’s toggle-able.
Is that something that would be blocked by an adblocker? Or are you talking about the shopping tab? I have not used that myself in duckduckgo
That would’ve been kinda interesting.
I think you can use kagi on as many of your own devices as you want right? I suppose you could share your account with multiple people (probably against their tos, I guess) and make it more private that way. Can’t really tell much with a bunch of searches from multiple people and you paying whomever is the owner of the account.
Yeah, this makes it also quite a bit less interesting to me. Perhaps it would be better if they could use donations and have a free instance for everyone. But I suppose that earns much less, and having people host their own instances does not seem to be on the roadmap for them.
I also use SearxNG for all my searches at the moment. But the instance I use is not that fast. Might have to look into hosting one myself.
Yeah, I used it for a long while in the past. Now mostly on searxNG, but I still like the bangs and quick results from ddg. Kagi is also pretty good, but feels a bit too pricey in my country.
So what are these exactly? An alternative to www/http websites? Are there any specific ‘websites’ or features that make it worth it to use something like this? (over TOR for example)
Yeah, would have been better to just mention it on the bottom without a number. This makes it confusing.
It mentions there is no space for growing grains, so yeah no 4 in this picture
Yeah, relying on donations is not that easy. I feel like it’s more like top athletes: Only the top performers can live on it, for all others it’s usually not enough to survive.
What I’m surprised with is that libre software is not more commonly utilised in goverments and libraries. For services that should provide open resources for all people, it would make much more sense to use similarly open software (and remove the overhead from paying for proprietary licenses)
Thanks, that’s a good place to start.
I’m continually amazed by how people can manage to bounce back from hardships and find something that works for them.
I learned to put both my palms around the lid, fingers crossing over my hands and then press hard inwards. This will pop the lid and then you can easily twist it open.
Useful if you don’t have any utensil nearby
