  • I think most people don’t understand the fact that Kagi is meta-search engine which literally collect the results of other search engines and display it and add very small amount of results from their index(tecilis).

    People basically pay them to search Yandex and Brave for them.

    You’re enticing that they ‘do very little’. But they do search multiple sources at once, providing a better choice of results for their users in addition to allowing users further customizable filters. If they’re doing this then they’re doing more than just the standard ‘Yandex/Brave’ search as you describe.

    I do however, agree that they should state that they are a metasearch engine if that is their case. Also just seen their pricing - ludicrous!










  • 🚨 🚨 🚨 FREEZE! STOP RIGHT THERE!! 🚨 🚨 🚨

    As the official lemmy police I am arresting you for defending a mad lad caught abusing powers. You do not have to say anything. But, it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.

    Jokes aside… I do think people should be allowed to post opinions an discuss other peoples behavior. Gol dude was caught abusing his powers, which is a disgusting thing to do, personally don’t mind him being called out for that in a post here and there. It’s not an attack on the poster, it’s a reminder to folks who the guy really is.

    I’m all for the truth, no matter who it is.




  • Been a while since I used Aegis, but as far as I remember Aegis is not cross-platform? Aegis you also have to sync the database/file yourself if you want backups of it. So its really down to preferences I guess.

    Personally I like having it synced across my many devices for the convenience. I also really enjoy the work Ente is putting into their apps, they’re developing solid apps with excellent functionality and releasing updates based on community feedback.










  • Currently exploring some tools around this myself too. I’d recommend having a look at Gonic, LMS(light music server) and Navidrome for hosting music. Personally I quite liked the simplicity of Gonic.

    If you need to re-sort/manage your music then, Beets and Musicbrainz Picard, or MediaMonkey (if you’re on Windows) are your friends. These can add alot of additional metadata to your library.

    Beets is apparently the “best” tool out of these as it has a big plugin library and hella customizable configuration for your exact setup.

    Best of luck 🤞
