I have received messages from a number of Mastodon admins, requesting the data to be anonymized in fear of harassment. I took it down until I figure out a way to make the tool safer for admins and smaller instances.

> you're not forced to interact with it Technically, yes. But that's not how things are. Because I don't interact with instances based on their T&C, I respond to my friends and other people online. There is no viable s

But that misses the point. If other servers will block my instance (because my instance isn't blocking a 3rd server or any other reason) then my choice of instance is also dictated by how other admins manage their servers & ToS.

I have a friend who works as a "make this mess a product we can show in conferences" engineer in a research center and it is literally what you described. The only reason he told me for still working there, is that: 1- the workloa

Indeed, disclaimer: I used to work for Qwant. But I've been using them even before ;) It is not just bing though, Qwant has its own crawler and index and only fallsback on Bing when the results are not satisfactory.

Qwant (Lite): I find it works best for French results, but it works pretty good for English as well.

Safari is a pain with bugs, unimplemented standards and just overall unpleasantness. I can't see why anyone would still use it today when FireFox for Mac has become so good.

The day I can run Firefox with proper extensions is the day I buy an ipad. Until then the macbook air is fine.

Because it is thinly veiled as a customer-choice. Again, not saying the outcome is different, but socially it won't be accepted, as it removes that veil.
