  • Many are, yes. But for some like me who play via cloud streaming where at least Nvidia stops that function, it’s a great thing. It’s also nice to have it all in one place, most people already use Steams screenshot function so having this too is just nice. This has been a commonly requested feature for a long time, it’s only weird that it has taken so long for it to exist.






  • The idea of it is, but DDG isn’t. I used it for a couple of years but rarely felt it was good enough, I kept having to go back to Google or even Bing or Yandex to get the results I needed. One of my major gripes was it not showing the dates on results, so I never knew if the information was up to date without clicking through to every result and checking it there. Then I kept seeing pretty bad news about it, the company doing stuff people, including me, didn’t appreciate.

    I know some will hate on me for this, but I’ve now used Kagi for about a year and it’s by far the best I’ve ever used. If or when that goes bad I’ll find something else, but right now nothing comes close to giving me both the right results and also giving me control over everything. Of course, there are negatives but that’s the case with everything else too. None of the “bad” news about it has turned out to be even close to as bad as first reported, and the rest is just people hating on it because others say they like it.







  • Larger engagement requires people to make and join communities/subs and we all need to help that happen. It took years for reddit to have what you’re talking about and it’ll take time here too. Sadly we’re at a point in internet history now where many people have tried their hand at being mods and admits and most of those discovered how much it can suck. We’re past the point of it being some exciting new thing so I think a push for better tools and options for those that might consider it is needed. People also have less time and mental energy to take on such roles now than 10-15 years ago.
