Heyo FOSS folks, What is your favorite non-google-infested web browser? So far I've been using LibreWolf for about a year, but it lacks the UI customizations I seek. I've tried degoogled chromium, but the user experience is akin to using a browser that has been lobotomized.

@wrongthink I used to have a searx instance available to the public, but it quickly resulted in search engines blacklisting my instance :/

YaCy is a cool project. I ran an instance of it a while back, and I forgot why I shut it down. I think I'll spin up another instance of it as well :)

Soon I'll have a few extra VPS instances that have lots of processing and network bandwidth but limited storage capacity. I don't want to delete them because I'm grandfathered in at a cheap price, but I also don't want to idle them. What are some productive/fun ways that I could use these VPS instances?

I am *so tired* of Google. :omya_google:

I am setting up a service on one of my subdomains that sends out email verifications. I sent the email to my testing Gmail account... That was a mistake. Google flagged the email as having a "deceptive" link.

Whatever, I clicked "report not as spam".

Now the entire domain and all my subdomains result in a big red "DECEPTIVE SITE AHEAD" warning on Chrome and Firefox.

FFS Google.

I've done the appeal process before, it sucks and takes a long time.

:blobcatThink: That job title is a bit of an understatement.

Incredibly cursed.
