So rentry.org, but with a live markdown preview and log in requirement.

I can totally understand the OP's frustration with TechCrunch's website, and with cluttered, bloated, obfuscated websites in general which only aim to maximize the time the user spends there by confusing the fuck out of them.

This is why I read sites like The Economist (finite number of articles, released weekly) and RSS feeds. So tired of the attention economy.

Every website has a finite # of articles, provided you visit them a finite number of times.

I wonder if the internet will be handled in a similar mater once humanity spreads to other plants.

You mean 2021.

I tried it out today for a full day to see whether I should quickly subscribe to get the legacy professional benefits. I found having a limit on the number of allowed searches really uncomfortable. So it is a nope for me at this price.

Also, the search engine market is really heating up. We have - Bing with a GPT chatbot - Brave Search with lenses, similar to Kagi - DuckDuckGo with a limited chatbot - Swurl is cool as well (but I think that is just a frontend for Google)

...and they are all free to use. I am not sure if Kagi will survive another year with this business model. IMO, they should focus on freeing themselves from Bing's API and build their own indexes to drive down costs, and also drop anything AI related gimmick, and embrace the UNIX philosophy: do one ting well.

Jetbrains products have paid plugins now. I hate it.

I actually replaced Docker Desktop on my M1 Mac, because even after quitting the app (properly), the qemu VM kept runing, and running my battery. I like that I have more control over the processes with podman. `podman machine stop` and the vm is gone.
