  • I know it pales in comparison to most others here, but that Star Wars theory about Jar Jar Binks being the ultimate Sith mastermind instantly popped into my head.

  • I get quite a bit of flak from my colleagues for paying for search, but I kid you not, I don't regret splurging on a Kagi subscription at all. It's personally less stressful for me, having to wade through less cruft, and I think I even work significantly faster because of how I use it.

    It's sad when you think about it. Search was such a good experience in the past.

  • Steam streaming is pretty cool too, I use it very often.

  • The first time I tried a sausage sizzle from Bunnings, I was a bit disappointed. Maybe it's because all my mates have been recommending giving it a try and hyping it up and whatnot, and I was really looking forward to it when I finally got around to it, but I didn't really find it all that after the fact.

    I mean, it's not bad. It's a couple of bucks, it's a great sausage on white bread, I'd get it again no worries. I kinda just expected more I guess.

  • Not the OP, but if youve got your own domain, you can register it with Proton so that you can create email addresses on it that route to your Proton inbox.

    How it'll work is:

    • Proton will ask you to verify you own the domain (by adding a few TXT records on it)
    • then Proton will give you some MX records you can add to your domain so that mail routes to Proton using your domain.
    • Protonmail
    • Spotify
    • Kagi search
    • a handful of servers scattered in DigitalOcean, Hetzner, and AWS
    • Sendgrid
  • and/or Vaultwarden as a selfhosted alternative.

  • UH OH!

  • It's unquantifiable, yes, possibly even placebo at times, but I think of it as paying for the features on top of search. I particularly find being able to create and adopt a search "lens" / focus and the ability to (de)prioritise domains very useful for my situation and needs.

    That being said, I totally agree with your sentiment. I also only have limited subscriptions I can practically maintain, and I feel like this one's earned it's place well enough. To each their own I guess.

  • UH OH!

  • I've recently started paying for unlimited searches over on Kagi, and I'm very happy with the results so far. I'd gladly pay if it meant less search cruft and higher result quality, but sadly Google's just been going downhill for quite a while now.
