Do you know any good instances that aren’t just art posts?

のんのんびより is nice and laid back. I haven’t read 君たちはどう生きるか tho.

I tried joining a Misskey instance last month with a VPN on and got kicked out :c It feels like I’ve tried everything in order for the algorithm to recommend me good videos. I try to like and comment on every good video I find. It has been like this for years at this point.

Animelon is great. Nowadays I mostly use https://nyaa.si/ + asbplayer + mokuro when I want to watch anime / read manga

What have you been reading lately?

Where do I find this? 🤔

Oh cool. I will check it out later =]

I like DDG lite a lot, but I need to be able to search for images :c

SearXNG seems to be free and private, checkmate!

I personally think people are overreacting, but hey, we’re on lemmy after all…

I use these instances: https://search.inetol.net/ https://search.hbubli.cc/ It’s working great so far. The only issue im having is that it pulls Chinese results every once in a while.

Startpage seems like a pretty good alternative. I read their privacy policy and it looks pretty solid.

Another $10 subscription just to browse the web… I don’t think it’s for me.

It’s probably not that big of a deal, but I just don’t want anything to do with Microsoft.

This is the best answer.
