While decentralised systems can be useful it will not be the future. Initially everything was decentralised and then we moved to centralised systems because they are easier to manage, easier to secure, cheaper. The main benefit for decentralisation is that you are not tied to single organization that dictates all the rules. If reddit would have better management, I would move back.

Another thing that comes in mind is native PWA support. Currently you need an extension.

Doubt it, because we have ″Microsoft Government″

I use adblock so have no reference point how it looks like without adblock. I assume you would just scroll a bit lower to get actual results?

What's a better alternative? Have tried all major ones except paid ones and I always return to Google. Maybe for basic stuff Duck Duck Go / Bing is fine, but once you start searching for local / non-English stuff, results were underwhelming.

Same setup here. Will check what's the state with new Locus version, maybe it finally has something that will win me over. I do not mind it being subscription too much, makes sense for continuous development, depends how much it is though.

Could it be due to data quality?

I personally use specialized local app for public transportation that gets data directly from public transport provider (their official app is lacking), check if you have one in your region. Routes and timetables are always correct this way.

Not sure what happened to it, but this was a thing already in 2005.

They just don't get it. Once everyone will use AI toilet and AI toothbrush they will sing a different tune.

And I do, have used it for 10+ years I think. Keyfile is also used so even with leaked DB file and password, it should be inaccessible.

I store my DB in Dropbox and use KeePass2Android on phone which has built in Dropbox sync.
