Dumping Google’s enshittified search for Kagi Enough is enough: I’ve jettisoned Google in favor of a search engine that doesn’t treat me like a product.

I've been using Kagi for the last 10 months, and it served me as well or better than Google, to the point I forgot I wasn't using G. I'm loving search again. I keep discovering new features, but its (increasing) use of AI (like with G) isn't one I crave for. #nogoingback

While I understand this on one level, it still feels so weird. No digital incarnation of a letter can match the experience of handling a physical one. Will letterboxes become the new phone booths?

Israel has deliberately starved the people of Gaza. It couldn’t have done it without the west's help | Owen Jones The current hand-wringing by Keir Starmer and other western politicians is empty bluster. They knew what was happening all along, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Open your eyes. "How the western elites are […] facilitating the mass starvation of an entire people."
by Owen Jones in "Israel has deliberately starved the people of Gaza. It couldn't have done it without the west's help"
