just dont use google? I havent used google search for years now and there hasnt been single time where i would have needed to use google search even once. Though unfortunately i’m still bound to the damn gmail because i cant find better alternative for it.

I self-host my e-mails, but that probably isn’t a viable solution for just everyone.
If it looked like https://ooh.directory/ I would be delighted.
They’ve already got it mapped out.
Ah yes, the Volvo S90 and VW Passat, definitely SUVs. Even Google’s screenshots show 40% garbage.
Without Google’s grubby paws across most the web, it’d be much more like the initial intent of what the internet was supposed to be, a welcoming place with open and accessible info!
If you don’t want to pay to access a web search service, just use docker and run your own SearXNG instance! This will also allow you to host our own AI model that searches the web through SearXNG. While it may sound like a lot of work, it truly takes an afternoon and some unused RAM on your PC to make happen, then you’re set up!
Docker enshitification coming in 3… 2… 1…
Meh there’s a ton of other services like opentofu, podman, vms, ect…
the initial intent of what the internet was supposed to be
A communication network for scientists and the military?
Good call, I should have worded that better. While the government and scientists were instrumental in creating the foundation for the internet, I was thinking more along the lines of the early PC era. When the internet was more or less a tool for openly sharing and discussing information as well as ideas.
But a lot of tech stems from governmental need and/or government funding. I mean, the modern refrigerator was a result of NASA problem solving for the environmental conditions found in space! GPS, LASIK, MRI’s, LED’s, barcodes, closed captioning, and the human genome project were all also thanks to government research too!

IMO: My personal problem with Docker is that it creates its own kind of vendor lock-in. Docker does not run on the server operating systems I use. The tendency is towards a Linux monoculture and that is never a good idea. Docker is a symptom, not a solution.
podman exists and doesn’t force root…
Is it really vendor lock-in if you can fork it at your whim?
forking doesn’t really help with the underlying problem that docker is a layer to run on top of Linux’s KVM. at a certain point though, it’s become standard enough though that BSD not having a good way to support docker, or any other CRI containerization service for that matter, is a BSD failure, not a containerization failure
