I dunno, but driving thru the insanely rich neighbourhoods definitely depresses me out.

    I used to work with a super right wing guy. He used to always say that government funded buildings should be featureless grey rectangles.

    Oh wow, I didn't realise (parts of) Japan, Korea, India, and fucking UK (https://kagi.com/images?q=tower+blocks+uk) are all socialist hellholes because of their apartment blocks...

    WTF... Dude... Idk what kind of mental gymnastics the marketing team of that "kagi" service had to make in order to actually convince you, it's only single user to pay for it, but if you have to login to use a web search then it offers less privacy than whatever alternative, even google.

    I was reading though their FAQ and they actually try to rationalize that lack of results isn't a bug it's a feature...

    Besides, there's no point in posting a link for it here, since no-one here will be able to open it.

    Sorry, I didn't actually realise it was not an open link as thought they had a few free queries. Just replace it with searching for "UK tower blocks" in your search of choice and hopefully you'll see my message.

    On Kagi, I have to say though, I happily pay for it. If it's free, you are the product, so not sure how it could be worse privacy wise. That's not mental gymnastics to me, I never saw an advert for it and chose it after seeing it recommended a lot on Lemmy. Tried it out and was sold with the results.

    I know there were some gripes around some potential, small funding of a Russian search engine (if I remember but happy to be corrected) but it felt like it was in the area of don't let perfect get in the way of good, and they are so much better than any of the free alternatives. I don't see ads, promoted results, AI crap and can customise my searches to suit me. They realease lots of upgrades that make the experience better for me instead of corporate advertisers. I used DuckDuckGo for years but started to see really bad results. Give me an alternative and I'll try it out!
