I'm surprised there is so little attention given to Staan.ai, the european search indexed built by Ecosia and Qwant. The API is now available, you can make a query after creating your token. This could enable SE innovation based on oth

Yes of course, "independant" investors that would jump by the broken window by themselves if they did criticize the Kremlin.

Yes, I know, didn't you read the "Well there are millions of European trying to avoid US tech. It's hard. A lot harder than Russian tech." sentence above ? You're comparing a war currently being played by Russia, de

Yandex is only for image search. Implementing a "I don't want to fund Yandex" option would solve the problem for customers trying not to fund this war. This would even lower the cost of the user's actions. Not doing so i

Well there are millions of European trying to avoid US tech. It's hard. A lot harder than Russian tech. As for the comparison, I don't think it's fair. The US has not yet invaded its neighbor, Canada, leading to millions of d

Is Kagi still using Russian government owned tech (Yandex) that censors informations about the illegal Ukraine war crimes ? If so, even if I do agree with your claims about the need to avoid ads so that the user is not the product, I believ

Is this based on ATproto ? I personnaly see new silos as something less interesting than ATProto apps.

I hope some people remain to build the services that we still use more every day than LLMs. Edit : and money. I guess most founders follow the money here.

Of course it should have been a Webpage. You can even code a whole modern map application on the Web, that's under 3 Mo gzipped, instead of the 600 Mo Java applications that we're served.

Thanks a lot for your report ! The shaking is probably caused by an aggressive option in Firefox : see this issue https://codeberg.org/cartes/web/issues/2095 . We can't really act on this, it appears to b

Do you know of any of these public bodies that would have the agility and competence to back such a project ? I don't. In France, where cartes.app is built and incorporated, the government is far from being ideologically equipped to en

Main developer of cartes.app here. We've internationalised the app. Expect some traces of French but we're working on it :) But yes, the development force remains mostly French for now. Waiting for more European contributions...

You're right. Last holidays, I went to beautiful place in Spain. A way covered in Ferns was marked as an OSM path. I guess it was, but did not get cut this year or the later. So we tried and failed 30 m after. It's important to ke

Could you try https://cartes.app and share your search terms and expectations ? We're using Photon, an OpenSearch search engine. We've build a dictionary of place categories to help in-browser with FuseJS. Also thinkin
