    It has been doing this shit for a while. Returning results based on just one key word out of many keywords from my query.

    Lately they have been even ignoring the restrictive +“keyword” syntax and returning whatever shit just so they won’t admit their (or Microsoft’s indexer) is shit





  • Good app.

    What’s weird and frustrating with some FOSS apps like NewPIpe is that they get hung up on adding some very useful and vital features that have massively been requested for years. While adding features that are only used by a minority of users.

    For instance there have been discussions on the projects github issue tracker dating back many years about the addition of search filter by date of upload. Yet this feature is yet to land in the App. For all its features this is my biggest let down with the app.


  • Because the uk government conceded that there is no current technology to scan communications without compromising encryption. And have relinquished forcing companies from adding backdoors “for now” without actually removing this provision for the law. Meaning they are leaving it to the regulator “ofcom” or future governments to decide when to request compromising encryption

    and that’s why even Signal and WhatsApp who threatened pulling out of the UK, haven’t issued any recent statement after the adoption of this law
