it's unclear to me why anyone, particularly anyone with even a passing interest in what the topic of this submission has to offer, would be even remotely interested in being the "master archivist of your own internet browsing."
i don't need anything else archiving anything related to my internet browsing except for my human brain. and yes, that's just me...
but how is the shameless plug of this not just therefore off-topic but diametrically-opposed-to-total-personal-privacy tool appropriate here?
- keepamovin 3y agoIs funny because this totally offline and locally hosted search engine in DownloadNet is potentially the most private of all. I get if you’re not interested, but I imagine people interested in locally hosted search-related solutions, may be. Your view is probably more personal and hard to support in general given this, and given the comment’s position and votes indicating at least some people are interested. I totally understand why you wouldn’t want your browsing history archived anywhere. But that is what search engines do somewhat. It’s okay, everyone’s different.
- nickburns 3y agonone of that (most includingly comment position and votes) = privacy. this tool is not relevant here.
- keepamovin 3y ago> none of that = privacy > this tool is not relevant here No it’s relevant. You don’t think self hosted and offline is private?
- nickburns 3y agoi self-host my human brain online in my own skull. i feed it and nurture it so that it can continue to perform and offer me the highest level of privacy i could possibly maintain.
- keepamovin 3y agomental privacy, huh, nickburns? That’s an interesting concept. there is no man in the desert. And no man needs nothing. Tho I prefer the west coast of Zaire or Suid-Afrika myself.
- nickburns 3y agomental privacy, huh, nickburns? That’s an interesting concept. you made your plug under the guise of asking if anyone had interest, i offered mine, and now i think we're done here, keepamovin.
- keepamovin 3y agoSeemed so
- nickburns 3y agobefore you go... i apologize for being a dick about it. i'd have to really reflect some more on why it felt necessary to go about it in this way, which is inevitably a deeply personal reflection. but if i may just say, privacy as a concept for a truly egalitarian society is something very near and critical in my opinion. marketing, on the other hand, is not. good day to you, sir.
- Art9681 3y agoThe entire field of Information Technology exists because the world disagrees that the thing in your skull has an acceptable level of intellectual and recall performance. And here we are on a social site dedicated to the pursuit of making it better. And so are you! One of us, apparently.
