Big search engines like Google and Bing are well known to track searchers activity and sell that data to advertisers — which is why many of us don’t feel comfortable searching freely anymore.If you’re looking for more private alternatives, here are a few I’ve come across. I’d love to hear what others are using too! DuckDuckGo – Great for simple, untracked searches Startpage – Delivers Google results without the profiling Brave Search – Strong privacy with its own independent index MyAllSearch – Clean interface with a focus on user privacy Qwant – GDPR-compliant, with servers based in Europe Dogpile – A metasearch engine that pulls top results from Bing, Yandex, and morePlease share anymore Iv'e missed, I'm always curious to discover new ones.

I like dogpile.com, which is an old provider that combines search results from a number of different engines. There's also yandex for images which can be cool. I like nudevista for tube site video streaming hits. I'll check out your sites op. I don't care much if people are tracking me but I think if I ever did it would have had to be covered from like the time I was in high school, which it hasn't and that was about 20 years ago. As far as I'm concerned, there's no way I'm going to have genuine anonymity. Thanks for the optionsThis is kinda cool I think: https://static.semrush.com/blog/uploads/files/39/12/39121580a18160d3587274faed6323e2.pdf
You can self-host your own search engine with SearXNG.
>>106530074Leta. It's also fun to see a cached search from other users searching the same thing, when it happens.

I'm not a programmer, but I work in IT. Is there a way to actually protect images/videos from being used for AI training? I'm pretty sure it's impossible due to the nature of images/videos (even if you were to encrypt something, you could just screenshot whatever it is and circumvent it or edit out any sort of border/watermark either with Photoshop or AI). This is more of a curiosity thing, I don't really want a solution since I use AI all the time to jork it.

Your OS will cache as much as it can to RAM for performance reasons.Many applications allocate much more memory than they need but don't actually use it, web browsers do this a lot.When the OS determines that it's low on memory, it starts squeezing caches and may inform applications that memory needs to be reclaimed (browsers will suspend background tabs at this point), and start swapping to disk.At this point there are more programs, all running perfectly fine despite those initial readings showing that there was no available memory.TLDR: unused RAM is wasted RAM

I've tried to move to Firefox from Chrome, but Firefox is just so fucking clunky it's unbelievable.It has so many annoying quirks that make it a pain to use.Chrome just fucking works.

Why so much crying?Don't like Firefox? Don't use it.>chrome just worksIf you're so happy with your Chromium skin, why are you looking for alternatives?
kek @ all the defensive trannies
every firefox extension has a backdoor even ublock origin. just use chrome if you dont want to get raped.
>>106518247i also moved to shitefox couple of months back when google released update that killed bunch of my extensions. it sucks ass, but somehow i made it work about 50% as good as chrome. the absolute worst part is using firefox on android, it is THE worst internet browser for smartphone that i ever used. it sucks so hard that it puts dolphin on nokias symbian to shitim not coming back tho. i WILL keep reinstalling revanced until i die. google can go fuck themselvesi will say this though. i think i finally understand apple sheep. in last 5 or 6 years google has slowly been building its own walled garden and it was pain to get out of its comfort. apple sheep have that in common, geting used to the safe zone. combined with lack of intelligence its no wonder they will set a tent and wait for 10 days for a phone they could overnight the next day anyway

Who amongst you actually subscribes to OF accounts? I've never met a single man who admits to it in real life but some of these women are supposedly millionaires.
>>106537949at the height of my usage (2022ish) I was subbed to 40+ accounts but most were free or free month trials and never paid more than $5-$10 to sub for a month. the pay pigs are all old men running up their visas/draining 401k/IRA or horny oil baron sons with bottomless trust funds etc. occasionally you get a single no kids tradie that pulled in a nice paycheck from the oilfields and blows it all on a single OF girl instead of just going nuts in Vegas for a weekend.
