They really lost the plot with Copilot, stuffing it into every Microsoft app possible.

Is this your site? It's missing a <title> tag.


To OP, your link for https://github.com/assistant-ui/assistant-ui does not work.


A combination of "Bypass Paywalls Clean for Firefox" and archive.is usually get past these.


Isn't that only because they offer unpaywalled versions to web crawlers in the first place, so they still get ranked in search results?


I would want to see a search engine which will not index paywalled articles and will not execute JavaScripts and CSS (so that any part of the document that requires JavaScripts to be displayed will not be indexed, and search queries involving such parts of the documents will not find those documents; documents that require JavaScripts to be displayed at all will not be indexed at all).


Highly recommend Zen Browser: https://github.com/zen-browser


What do you like about it?


its got stronger privacy out of the box than stock firefox, modern design, big fan of vertical tabs myself and it now has basic tab folders if enabled by flags. ubo/bpc both work nicely.


Vertical tabs and tab groups (I suspect it can't be that different from folders but I could be wrong) are available in Firefox.


And they're really good. I'm so glad I've discovered this paradigm.

I use a vertical task bar on KDE and a vertical task bar on Windows at work. It's such a huge productivity boost. First, I can see WAY more window previews at one time than before. And second, I can use text to tell the windows apart. 5 Excel workbooks open? No problem, they each have a name. No more clicking on one icon and then squinting at window previews to see which one you need.


…yet another Chromium browser though - supporting the Google browser monopoly.


It is based on Firefox…


They really should be a LOT clearer about it on their homepage, 99.99% of "original" browsers tend to be a wrapper around Chromium.

And as someone who actually lived through the "IE is the standard, deal with it" - age, I refuse to use any Chromium based browser out of principle. We need more actually viable engines in use or Google will just keep dictating what's allowed on the internet by the fact that Chrome has something like 90% market share on desktop browsers.


How is your product compared to Browser Base https://www.browserbase.com/ ?


Why should I use a calculator when I can use an abacus?


Why use an abacus when I can just use my fingers and toes?


Just need the chatbot to connect to an MCP to call my robotic arm to sign it.


> When I was a teen in the 90s, I got new music from the radio. The music director picked 40ish songs a week and that's what we listened to.

Those Top 40 singles were spoon-fed to you by Clear Channel within a very limited selection from the Top 5 major record labels.


And?

That doesn’t change the shared cultural experience. Decades had “sounds”, disco was a thing in the 70s because everyone heard it. Today there’s no shared cultural zeitgeist. You might find communities on reddit etc, but they aren’t local.
