  1. 🎉 Big Tech alternatives are finally getting mainstream media attention! 🎉

    Yesterday, The Guardian published a piece on how people and organizations can leave Big Tech behind and choose ethical, privacy-focused alternatives, a topic we’ve been passionate about at Tuta for a long time. 🙌🔐

    Thank-you to Steve Rose for mentioning Tuta. It’s great to see privacy-first solutions getting recognition. 🙏

  2. We CAN end poverty and increase quality of life for the vast majority of people on the planet, without increasing either resource or energy consumption. Let's take a quick look at a paper by Jason Hickel and Dylan Sullivan that proves it. 🧵 1/11

  6. Let’s talk about searching the Net. Honestly it’s a long list of fails: human-curated directories became too gargantuan to be maintained properly, conventional search engines got poisoned by advertising, SEO, and all that stuff. AI searches could be interesting if they were not hallucinating and, above all, not requiring nuclear power to function. What is left then? RSS, forums, etc are always good but not optimal for quick searches. I don’t have a solution, I use randomly all of the above tech but I curse myself having to deal with the negatives. Any functioning alternative would be welcome… #SearchEngines #AI #SEO #RSS #TechAlternatives #fail
