The market share for Win 11 has dropped because people are “downgrading” to Win 10, holding on to that for another year before support runs out.

The Windows computers in our house never upgraded to Win 11.

No surprise there.

Some people are also jumping ship to Linux, fed up of Windows BS all together.

Yeah, combines with beaverhabits, for all around fun action.

No, mostly because Google Search is just terrible. The app itself is great.

At least with Searx you can search multiple private search engines (your preference) at once. You can also selfhost it.

I have been doing that for around 10 years already, when I bought my first NAS with Docker capability.

I keep all my music locally. Ultrasonic app on the go.

I’m staying on Lemmy and off Bluesky.

I seek and spread knowledge from/to helpful lemmings and not interested in another Twitter wannabe gossip app, hopping on the “decentralized” train to grain traction.

Well who knows?

I have no problem switching to an alternative is Cromite bellies-up tomorrow.

For now though I’ll stick with it.

The biggest problem is the scarce availability outside the US.

Or should I say, that the biggest problem is software (OS) compatibility with other devices than the Pixel?

My money is on the latter.

Hahaha!

Fuckin epic!

Why?

Cromite is excellent.

Too bad it’s chromium based, but works a whole lot smoother and snappier than Firefox based browsers, oh and safer as well… So for the time being, Cromite it is.

Librewolf on desktop Linux is my weapon of choise.

“Old age” disks!

Hahaha. That’s hilarious.

Just like society labeling.

I rather run native than emulation.

That way I get to use 100% of the power at my disposal, for the product I bought.

Yes I’m sure.

Not really searching for 'em though. :)

The app is in this curated list of great Android FOSS apps.

You made me chuckle.

Thank you for that.

I don’t know if Bing’s search results are better than Google’s.

They all suck.

I stopped using Whoogle (Privacy engine using Google search) because of the bad search results. Google’s fault of course.

Trying SearxNG now.

The way you write tells me you are young.

The older you get (and having a family of your own) the more you enjoy the quiet moments, just like the ones when you sit in an airport, waiting for the plane.

It’s really feels like a weight has been lifted from your shoulders.

Yeah, fucking sheep!

I also thought about those scenes in Wally when I was walking the dog the other day.

Soon all of us will float around in armchairs and never step outside.

Welcome to the new world.

PS: I am old too.

Ouch!

Pierced my heart, that one.

Even Picard gets some metadata wrong on auto. Don’t trust it blindly.

Be careful and only do changes manually.
