Using Google whilst Duck Duck Go is down. How long has Google been this bad?
  • I’ve found Google alternatives great for things that are… filtered (copyright etc), but honestly no matter what search engine I use, I swear none just give you the results for your query anymore. I’ve still been finding the Bing-based ones horrible quality for relevancy and defaulting to Google.

    Spotify quietly moves lyrics behind a paywall.
  • I thought this meant on top of Premium and I was about to be pissed.

    But honestly, Spotify is one of the only companies where I don’t feel like my experience has gotten noticeably worse over my time using it.

  • Yes, but
  • I don’t run Adblock because I hate brands, I use it because the internet is more invasive by the day.

    If one day I go to put on my shirt and another company sewed their logo over the neck hole, well then we’ll have a similar issue.

  • Smart devices are turning out to be a poor investment
  • The only absolute with these devices is that you don’t get what you pay for. Inevitably it will completely change without your consent, and generally it will deliberately be for a worse experience since you’re captive.

  • I'm giving them a year until lifetime licenses start to mean nothing.
  • I am so sick of the new age of zero ownership or protections. Instead of greedy companies losing customers, other companies just see it like “oh shit we can do that too?” and consumers are the only ones losing.
