• Can I get an TLDR?

  The "manor" example is one of the few points I've seen brought up in response, but it's far from clear-cut, as the forum posts linked above explain. Feel free to draw your own conclusions from them. I'm not convinced it was the best use of $15 million, but I also don't think that buying a medium-price-range conference center was an obviously bad idea, and the money came from private donors (not the standard EA...

• What about people like me who struggle to feel financially safe?

  Sure! None of the ways of donating that I know about (directly to the charities themselves, EA funds, others here) have a minimum amount or anything like that. Source: over 1 year ago

• Do you give to charity?

  It’s easy to look for excuses not to give but donations can make a big difference, especially if targeted in the right places. See comments further down about Givewell and Effective Altruism. https://funds.effectivealtruism.org. Source: over 1 year ago

  I give through Effective Altruism: https://funds.effectivealtruism.org. Source: over 1 year ago

• Effective Altruism As A Tower Of Assumptions

  Good news: If you want to support global health and development but not animal welfare, you can just donate to the Global Health and Development Fund! None of the money will go to anti-factory farming charities. Even better, you don't even need to go through EA: You could donate directly to charities recommended by GiveWell so you know exactly who's getting your money. Source: over 1 year ago

• Just a reminder that WhatsApp is also owned by Facebook

  Meaning, you can go to public instances like searx.me,. Here's the documentation on how to start it up. But , you dont have to trust Searx that they are good people nor do you have to trust their data habits like DDG. Source: about 2 years ago

• Instead of lashing out at duckduckgo for doing what they think is best, ask the deeper question of why we’re all still using centralized services and being disappointed when they behave in a predictably centralized way.

• DDG, once a hero has now fallen.

  For those looking for a replacement for Duckduckgo; I would highly recommend using Searx. It's an open source privacy respecting search engine with many decentralized private instances you can swap between. The link I sent is the primary instance, but here is a link with dozens more, and my own private instance. Source: about 2 years ago

• DuckDuckGo is out. I guess I'll try Brave Search.

  The most based solution: Https://searx.me. Source: about 2 years ago

• Uh oh.. What will the vaccinated think of this news?

  Searx.me and Startpage.com are the best search engines right now that are anti-censorship and anti-bias. Source: about 2 years ago
