Which plate was Barack Obama holding? Come on, be honest now.

Kagi uses its own crawler, right? But yeah, I expect DDG to follow Ecosia's lead.

Spez is really trying to turn Reddit into 9gag, huh?

Isn't AdGuard just DNS?

It isn't "just" DNS level blocking, no. They have an adblocker for browsers, too. uBlock is using their filters.

other mobile browsers you don't have any at all

Some have built-in adblockers (ex: Brave, DDG), others support extensions (ex: Safari, Orion).

Welcome back! Is it a good time to mention that before you left for your fishing trip, you forgot to push 1.11.2 to TestFlight? 😐

I don't care that you can disable it

It's opt-in.

Contrary to SearX/SearXNG, you can't select more than one source for your search results. I honestly don't see the point in this case. Just use DDG, unless you don't want to use Yandex/Marginalia/wiby directly? The other sources included are DDG, Brave and Mojeek, but those already respect your privacy.

No, Google's not in there, but then again so what? I've had to disable Google as a source for SearXNG because it was systematically returning garbage results.

With 4get you can set a different source for your web searches, pics and news results, however. That's a good feature.

Nice quads. Very nice.

Hardly any, even though Odysee has an option to auto upload whatever you're uploading to YT on their platform.

Am I missing this option?

~~It should be in Settings -> General.~~

Edit: scratch that. I just checked the PWA and it doesn't offer this option, sorry :-/

I'm also seeing ads that are hidden off-screen

That's pretty weird, maybe make a post about it? I never saw anything like this personally.

That's because you open your links "In App". Switch this off and you won't have that kind of banner anymore.

This is a problem with the PWA. Basically, the last website opened in-app that may have suggested to install a native app via a banner will keep said banner in memory.

If SearXNG worked for you, why not use a more stable instance?
