…aaand this is why chatgpt is no substitute for expertise.
It’s “generative” AI, in that it generates lists of words that fit together. But it has no actual understanding of anything so the stuff it generates is totally surface, middle-of-the-road whatever-you-want-to-hear.
Mostly to avoid conspiracies. The intended users are people who want to protect vulnerable family members.
Another purpose is to demonstrate that the big social networks could get rid of disinformation if they wanted to - “look what 1 person can achieve, in their spare time”, kinda thing.
The only time I use ddg is to find conspiracy sites to add to the blocklist I maintain. All the trash rises to the top in that search engine. It’s rubbish.
How does the data throughput compare to cloudflare or wireguard?
You have it backwards - we don’t find a cool project we want to contribute to and then try to learn the technology needed. Instead, we already know the language/tech/tool from our work or education and then seek cool projects to contribute to that use that language/tech/tool.
As a beginner you can’t expect to rock up to a github project and be productive or even understand what is going on. Usually open source projects are not extensively documented and no one will have time to show you around. That is no way to learn.
No one can be productive in more than a handful of languages/tools. Once you have more experience you will become specialised in certain languages and can seek projects that use those languages.
For now, try to find a situation where there are people around who will invest time in helping you to build your skills. A supportive employer, or tertiary education.

You could use it as part of your infrastructure. E.g. DNS server, database server, redis server, file server. But running the whole stack will be too much unless you upgrade the RAM. 1 GB minimum, preferably 2.
One nice feature of Kbin is you can block domains. So when I block rumble.com right after typing this, I won’t see any more videos from rumble in all communities.
How is it that we’ve been using microwaves with plastic containers inside them for decades and yet no one has checked this before?

I apologise for my dismissive tone earlier. Thanks for putting your idea out there 🙂
