I regret not including this as an option now but I contemplated adding this part:

The majority of our (subjective-my) internet nowadays follows patterns of the same places, new places are often found on the old places.

Most of my sites are bookmarked trusted websites. (Increasingly more self hosted also) wikipedia for facts, wolfram alpha for math, sites i have an account on.

Part of the crux is when is the last time you googled in the hope to find a new website you don’t already know yet? Even ads direct you using QR.

I find i rarely need a search engine anymore and when often when i do i can’t find anything anyway. Stuff has gotten so buried under search engine optimisation you are better of using ai for a first responds to obtain the terminology to search for how wrong ai got it then by searching for a question directly.

I am hoping to try this thing soon and if its good it might replace 90% of my browser activity. -> https://github.com/glanceapp/glance
