That applies to much of the Fediverse. It's great to see a growing chunk of the web that's genuinely free.
Also, consider switching search engine, you don't want to be fueling an evil megacorporation and letting it know all about you, plus DuckDuckGo is probably even better nowadays.
Duly noted, but I've also heard a bit about ecosia. Is that any good?
EDIT: Pulled up the wikipedia page and was delightfully treated to this " the ads served on DuckDuckGo are based on keywords and terms of the search query."
How 'targeted ads' should be. "Hey, I see you're looking for an item, here are some companies to consider for said item."
It's cool and all because you can passively plant trees, but really it doesn't make much of a difference for the environment and you pay for it with your privacy. There are many better ways to help the climate, so I say nah.
