Despite what TikTok might claim, I’m fairly certain they’ve never actually turned a profit. Data collection, and influencing the American was always the point.

Yeah, from my experience I believe Kagi’s results are like 90%+ pulled from Brave’s search index. I like the concept of Kagi, but I prefer SearXNG as a search aggregator.

When the citations are on point, I like AI search. 9 times out of 10 I care enough to read the source though.

However, there are still way too many hallucinations when it comes to sources in my experience. It just wastes my time when I go to verify and find that AI just spat out garbage.

Anyone have an opinion on Perplexity compared to Brave Search?

I really value Brave having their own independent search index. Google, Bing, and Yandex have dominated the space for quite some time.

I know Perplexity claims to have a small / curated independent index, but I’m not really sure how true that is.

I’ve used syncthing for this, and personally found it to work really well.

I’ve heard Taildrop (Tailscale feature), works pretty good too.

Heroic Games Launcher is a pretty smooth experience on Linux for what it’s worth. It works well for GOG, Epic, and Amazon Games.

I’d be happier if they push for lighter devices personally. Glass feels nice, but their Pro models can be obnoxiously heavy.

Have you ever looked at the DeArrow extension?
