I have been using this for a few years now. Has all the keys I could want. Actually makes ssh-ing from termux not a bad experience. My mom (not a programmer) uses it as well because she is able to type much faster with the swiping than with

Google still works for me. I don't know if it's because I am in the EU or because uBlock Origin gets rid of the promoted results, probably both. Also, if you are searching for something time-specific then "after:" and &q

> The Steens knew that their son was an avid gamer, but they'd not grasped that for nearly a decade, he had had another virtual life in the game World of Warcraft. I had to read this sentence a couple of times before it made sense.

Technically an empty awk program is an implementation of cat(1) (before it came back from berkeley waving flags, anyway). Of course no awk will run an empty program, so the article's '1' or '"a"' or other

I mean they could've not deleted the accounts of people who didn't migrate (and instead just stopped them from playing until they did) and they did delete them so that is definitely the case.

I watch youtube using mpv (with yt-dlp) so this doesn't affect me. I already hated that when you pause a youtube video, and a bunch of UI shows up.
