Oof... I don't find that as long or intense of a pattern as with brave but the behaviour to reach out and repeatedly bug the guy about his small blog post reflects strangely and poorly on his character :/ I had no idea kagi kinda came with baggage as well.
And yeah, it definitely is. Thats part of why I try really hard not to let perfect be the enemy of good. There is no perfect, and I still want to be involved in good where I can, to the extent that there is good available.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share a ton of additional context. I often have a hard time keeping in the loop about things and if I'm going to use imperfect things because I think they're better than the alternative, then I want to at least pay attention to and understand their imperfections
Thank you!
And yeah the fact that brave sucks so god damn much is frustrating. Brave is the best independent search engine with their own index (of the free options) in my opinion. At some point I need to try searx and kagi, but I prefer an independent engine rather than a meta search engine, and am broke as fuck π
That definitely adds a bit more context still. Thank you for the additional information.
I don't know much about either of the first two people, but I do know lunduke and think he's gross (if you have context on the first two you're welcome to share but no obligation to of course :)
Though, I'm also a fan of futo and Louis Rossman. I try to air on the side of being able to appreciate people doing good work even if I don't agree with everything they do or think. People come from different backgrounds and not everyone will see the world the way I do, or be sensitive to the pain caused by the issues that affect me personally π€·ββοΈ

Their caption "look, it's all my favorite streaming services on one platform!" Is probably better than mine lol
The thing that makes it ugly (a lack of consistent geometry and inconsistent line weights) is exactly what makes it harder for someone's brain to swap or misinterpret letters. I love pretty fonts and pretty UI, but if I had to pick between a pretty UI and being able to read, it's not exactly a hard choice. Gimme the ugly thing that helps my brain actually read π€·ββοΈ
not the person you replied to, but I wish someone had told me that rather than just downvoting me, that's helpful to know about and I only found out cause I came to try dig though the thread to see if there were clues as to why folks were so unhappy with my mentioning it π
Not everyone knows or keeps up with every blemish on a project's record
