And macOS autocorrect would be nice as well

Aren't we already doing that though with Mastodon, Lemmy etc?

I've been using Kagi for a while and would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone BUT with the caveat if you want to search for a local business or similar, at least here in the UK, then it's pretty rubbish... I find Google still reigns at that.

Watched it at the cinema here in the UK, it's been in out in other countries for a while, have a look at the IMDB entry...

The recent French language movie was absolutely superb as well, one of my favourite movies I've ever seen (as long as you can handle subtitles)

Not approving of any corporate behaviours here, but extracting the maximum price a market will bear has been the basis of pricing and supply/demand since such concepts existed which is at least 250 years.

I'm surprised they think this is useful... if I've paused a video it's because I'm answering the phone or front door, making a coffee, going for a shit etc... I'm almost never going to see these ads πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

SBM is run by Dr Stephen Novella aka Skeptics Guide to the Universe, these guys are some of the most vocal (and knowledgeable) pro-science anti-quack science communicators around... if there's BS antivacc nonsense floating around, they'll call it out and rip it apart.

Can highly recommend their podcast (the aforementioned Skeptics Guide to the Universe) as well!

Thing is how do you differentiate between a bunch of people who genuinely like a product and are happy to say so because it's solved a problem for them that they see other people having, and "subtle spam"?

For instance, I'm a Kagi subscriber and have been for some months now as it's doing a good job for me, and I've had the odd person leap down my throat accusing me of being a corporate shill etc, and I am absolutely not (but that's what a shill would say!!!)

How does anyone get a product recommendation from a product that's genuinely growing in popularity so people are recommending it? I get there needs to be a healthy dose of cynicism but where does the line get drawn to the point where that cynicism is no longer "healthy" and simply means everyone distrusts everything that's made by a company if somebody on the internet says it's good?

Where's the equal cynicism when somebody says something is shit and it could be a corporate shill from a competitor?

It didn't help they hadn't thought it through either... the game was for sale in countries where you can't get PSN πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
