This is a very rare use case, but one where i definetly found them very useful. Similar to another answer mentioning reverse-dictionary lookup, i used llms for reverse-song/movie lookup. That is, i describe what i know about the song/movie (whatever else, could be many things) and it gives me a list of names that i can then manually check or just directly recognize.
This is useful for me because i tend to not remember names / artists / actor names, etc.
I disagree and think it depends on where you live
Some of these products would not exist without their American counterpart, which directly fuel their existance.
Librewolf is just a hardened version of Firefox. It would not exist without the Firefox team continuing to develop Firefox and to fix its security issues.
Ecosia primarely uses Bing and Startpage uses Google for search results. Both would not exist without the search engines backing them.
I'm not saying these are bad products and I don't mean to criticiseze. I'm actually a librewolf user myself. I just think it is important to point out that the European label might be deceiving in this instance and might mislead people into thinking they are using something different than they actually are.
It might also not be so important. Perhaps focusing our energy on good open source projects and NGO-backed initiatives is desirable regardless of their origin?
idk food for thought
This is wrong. Obsidian is not open source. It's a closed source app, that uses an open format (i.e. markdown).
I've seen this often and fallen for it myself, so much so that I think it could be considered an instance of the Mandela Effect xD

Snake plant help
Hi there!
I need some help with this individual. It's a snake plant (i don't know the exact species). I've had it for a few years, and it's been doing quite well.
However, it grows really sporadically and it started taking up quite a bit of space. It has some strange growth, due to a bulb leaning to one side at some point. I also can't sustain the weight of some of its own leaves so they hang laterally.
I don't know how it can be helped / remodelled. Maybe a bigger pot could help, idk? I've also though of removing some leaves, but i'm afraid of damaging it.
Suggestions are very welcome.
Barefoot Shoes
Hi there!
What are some good, european, barefoot shoes brands. I already own a pair of vivobarefoot, but their peoducts are quite expensive, so i'm looking for some more affordable options as well.
Thanks!!
p.s. if you think there is a better place to ask this, let me know :D
edit: thanks everyone for the great suggestions!
I get it, I've been there, but there is just no point in hating yourself because random big company wants to make money off of you, so they shove convenience in your face. Just do you best to align yourself to your values. Doesn't have to be perfect. It's ok if it's always work in progress. Don't put your life and wellbeing on hold.
Also duckduckgo.com/aichat is a thing.
had the same question. after some research, I'm planning to switch to posteo.de
I resigned a couple years ago to using the default aosp keyboard as well, only to find out a couple of weeks ago about heliboard. It has gesture typing and multilingual support, which I missed from gboard. autocorrect is still crap, but i'm already used to it, so for me it was an all around improvement. quite surprised to see others not liking it
