I do think its a waste to spend money on a search engine

I honestly believe that it's good to pay for services if you find them good. FOSS does need the money but unless you want to wait for the long term, it's not viable as a user.

Its fustrating as a FOSS nerd to see so many people shill yet another subscription based service ...

I'm quite interested in FOSS stuff but I get disappointed by so much FOSS stuff I now just use whatever feels the best to me
