i’m not so sure on the privacy of any of this.

offtopic but related: android privacy settings are scattered across many hidden menus.

it’s a fantastic metasearch engine. but also people frequently dont configure it to its max potential IMO . one common mishap is the frequent default setting of sending queries to google. 💩

thanks for the tip. the number would seem to sit at 40% dominance by urban landlords.
i would think that the housing market, affects the rental market. but not always. apart from homebuyers that get priced out and have to re-enter the rental market.

#notanexpert . but to argue my case:
in some housing markets: “Top 5 companies control 70% of the market: The top 5 real estate companies in the market, including Ebby Halliday, Keller Williams, RE/MAX, Coldwell Banker, and Century 21, control approximately 70% of the market share”

from a privacy perspective…
you might as well use a vpn or tor. same thing.

perplexity is not that great

searX still uses the same search engines.

capitalism is not very competive and therefore, price-fixing between small group of large players, is almost inevitable outcome.

mastodon allows you to post ONLY to the current instance. (not to public and not customizable.)

true, true

why do so many people think that what they see with their eyes must be the truth

thats a very important point. thank you for making that clear.
i think this is where mastodon has an advantage.
also hosting on vps does not come with a guarentee for privacy. especially in US

if u want privacy then join diaspora and use aspects. better yet: host an instance.

reminds me of homeless hotspot project

anyone who has this kinda money would probably just store data on cloud storage provider. unless they are the provider.
