This is awesome, now if they switch to a JS engine that isn’t slow and buggy on my laptop I have 0 reasons to use anything chromium-based anymore

This is huge but let’s see what happens when this inevitably reaches the supreme court
Please fix normal search first i dont need this
Removed by mod
Tutanota is kind of a protonmail competitor but it’s been years since I looked into it idk how they’re doing
Wow excuse my zoomer language but… Who asked?
Kagi pays Google for search results to supplement its index so it will keep reddit results as long as Google lets them
Damn you reminded me to check my gmail and there was a domain renewal reminder, thanks!
I pirate a bunch of VSTs from audionews.org. It’s private but they give away 10 invites a day in their telegram. You should be fine just pirating stuff older than a few weeks by trusted groups like R2R since malware will get taken down (if it gets detected). Personally I think the risk is tolerable but it’s obviously never 0.
1 and 2: Just pirate. Any company that disrespects the user by enforcing DRM like that deserves to lose out on money.
I don’t know what NowTV is but sometimes you can bypass restrictions like this by using an extension that switches your user agent to chrome on windows.
All the rest: Yeah… It sucks… Most of these issues would be solved if enough people used Linux to make porting stuff a worthwhile investment. It’s a chicken and egg problem but I’m hopeful with the ongoing enshittification of Windows. Surely one day enough people will be tired of eating shit and finally stop doing it.
It’s a step in the right direction
TIL about windows kiosk mode!
I can understand it from the perspective of the developers who need to implement all this crazy tracking/advertising/graphics functionality, but imo a vending machine should only do three things:
Vending machines have done this for decades without requiring an operating system. Keep it simple!
Yes of course Linux is a fully fledged OS, my point was a vending machine should not need any OS, my bad if I didnt make that clear
Makes sense, but a vending machine shouldn’t need a fully fledged OS in the first place imo
I love how vending machines run windows now
God I hate websites that autoplay unrelated videos and DONT LET ME CLOSE THEM TO READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE
I’m not saying they should switch to v8. Ideally they’d make their own performant JS engine but I doubt they actually have the resources for that. I’m just wishing for a browser that’s actually good on all fronts even though it realistically cannot exist
