I think that using gecko based browsers like Firefox is the best thing to do in the short term. But having no competition is a bad thing. So supporting new web engines, like Ladybird, is important too: https://github.com/LadybirdBrowser/ladybird

Thank you for your comment. Since I deactivated Google Play services, I don’t get notifications on many apps. I didn’t know there were alternatives. Unfortunately, the app server must be compatible, but if I can have it at least for Telegram with this fork, it would be a good start. I’ll take time to compare the different alternatives and see if other push servers are compatible with more apps.

For what I understand, there are self hosted push servers, like NextPush that works on Nextcloud, and some that provide you a server, liked ntfy. For the latter, you have to check the privacy policy to see if it’s better than the default Google firebase server.

I installed Tubular today. It’s a fork of NewPipe with SponsorBlock. Is it the same thing or a different fork?

The multilingual support always predict words in all languages, even if you started a sentence in a specific one. And it will follow the typo rules of the first language in the list. For example, if the first language is French, it will add a space before the interrogation mark (French rule), even if you’re writing in English.

The library is closed source.

Phind had an open source model, but the web interface isn’t open source.

Je n’aime pas le point médian parce que je ne sais pas comment le prononcer. De plus, je mets beaucoup plus de temps à lire un texte avec des points médians (ou normaux ou tirets ou autre), un peu comme quand je lis un texte avec pleins de faire d’orthographe. Quand je reçois un long mail plein de points médians, je demande à ChatGPT de le convertir en quelque-chose de plus lisible.

Ce que je fais quand j’écris, c’est que j’essaie d’utiliser des mots neutres comme personne, mais peut-être qu’un jour, on nous dira que c’est un mot féminin et qu’il faut parler de person·ne·s ou de personnes et persons.

The model is open source, but not the whole site. It was made to help in programmation, so sometimes it makes funny answers when you ask something that has nothing to do with programmation and it tries to answer giving you a Python code.

I learned to program at the same time I learned English. I learned the words if, then, else and while in this context.
