Y'all hip to Blush Response? His work has been really inspiring me the past few years.

If not, SPRAWL is a good place to start

Or for a more industrial techno approach, IN EXILE:

On this note, I've been having a decent run with Qwant. No AI chatbot, seems to be referencing some of the big indexes but also recently partnered with Eccosia to start working on building an independent index.

Mojeek was underwhelming but I'll try it again

Kagi was appealing to me as well, especially the quality of their results. However the requirement for a user profile (allowing them to build a profile based on your searches) and their involvement with AI soured me.

Would possibly pay for a search engine if it could somehow avoid the above pitfalls.

Joined PeerTube last month and have had great success with it in terms of as a platform and place to share art / content, though of course the views have been low.

I'm sure there is a megathread elsewhere but would love to see an acceleration of folks adopting the Fediverse. My talking point has been to sort of sell Fediverse alternatives (Lemmy, Pixelfed, Mastodon) as superior to other big tech alternatives out there (such as BlueSky and Flashes). We are either at the vanguard of a mass migration or just migrating while no one else is intending to, which I guess amounts to the same thing!
