Correct. They have the history of "the best use of desktop space" from unity DE. Although I will not forgive canonical for dropping unity, the gnome they have is close.
Why do I use it? Well, I have been using it for about 6 years, was the first thing to work fine in my mobile, don't want to install another extension in ff, hate bookmark handling by ff (at least in mobile), and want to push myself in reading.
Although I nowadays see too much american articles in pocket to be relevant for me.
I have seen worse. Normie's around me use their phone to capture photo of the laptop screen and send the low pixel photo with less than half part in it including the actual document.
Don't underestimate the power of Normies. They don't know what a ransom is, nor the value of their own data. Any email requesting for ransom will go unnoticed or marked spam, and users will live in their normie nirvana, while their digital self will lie floating around internet, which they wont give a damn. After all, all their Facebook photos and tiktok videos are already out.
Alternative you may consider is the brave search. Supports many bangs (?all of what ddg supports). It is independent of other search engines as well. But its picture search is poor.
They will most likely continue to use win 10 oblivious of its EOL. I have seen many using windows 7 even now. Some tech-aware will install win11 in the same machine by registry hack or sth. Very, very few will consider the possibility of alternatives.
Understood. Serving emotional content is the social media stunt to grab attention. News is not The intention. And without enough context, it increases polarity in our society. Tiktok is a master of this tactic.
