They literally ad d ed the tagging function on images to improve their facial detection so I doubt that this is a surprise to anyone!

It’s a really good search engine and I have no reason to doubt their claims about privacy and cencorship but I have to say no there because beside finding piratebay in the normal search results it’s all just their claims and I don’t know of any sientific study or similar that ever tested any of the claims. If you don’t trust those promises self hosting SearX is probably a good option and I haven’t tried it in years but Qwant is another one with their own index aka independent results.

Fuck, the NSO group managed that shit again?!

Oh my god, another reminder that stupidity know no bounderies, especially online! 🤦

With a focus on “sometimes” but yea, it’s certainly better than most in many cases!

And at least QAnon levdl stupid!!!

The GDPR is one of the most important laws the EU ever created and the issues you talk about are probably cookie banners, that’s such a increadably tiny issue in a small part of a huge and hugely important law that this comment is nothing but fucking silly!

Yes, that’s the goal, there was a great blog post from one of the KDE guys about a meeting people from the Neochat, Matrix and XMPP projects where invited to to explain the benefits of interoperability between chat apps and that part actually made it into the law now!

That doesn’t matter for Fairphone tho, they partner with Murena because Murena partners with them if I had to guess

GrapheneOS made clear they don’t want to support anything bit Pixel devices countless times if I am not wrong and it’s creator is anything but cooperative!

Seriously? Maybe try to take another look because that couldn’t be father from reality!

Well, not about the DNS blocking, that’s absolutely great but it can only block on a domain basis so ads from the same domain aka first party ads (E.g. Youtube ads) can’t be blocked using it.

DNS blocking isn’t proper ad blocking but it’s certainly better than nothing!

A german Youtuber made a great video about that titles “not AI will replace you, your boss will”

Funfact, the shitpapers of Axel Springer plan to use fully fletched AI generated articles since ChatGPT came out, in that case I can’t see any way to decrease the quality further tho!

Youtube never was a especially profitable business on it’s own, they basically just need it for the traffic but I guess they might try to change that, if that’s the case the logical next step would be dropping independent creators! :/

Luckily Libretube and Piped still work so I haven’t had to visit the normal Youtube site in ages, I do know Youtube increased their aggression towards third party frontends too tho so we will see how long the Newpipe extractor will work I guess!

I actually read their privacy policy, that’s a great staeting point, well and their lack of E2E encryption is a exception for chat apps nowdays too!

I think that would make a lot of sense considering the different communities about similar topic on different instances, can’t replace a proper search engine but I get that that would be really expensive to host (you would have to basically index Lemmy) and that’s a nice option for official discoverability support. The biggest issue in that regard will continue be the architecture of current search engines tho, Fediverse applications can’t rank properly in a domain based system and a Reddit alternative MUST rank in search engines to be viable!

I am a gamer and I didn’t ether!
