  • Recently I too have made a huge change in move towards degoogling and replaced Gboard with Heliboard. I never thought I’d be able to replace Gboard because I use gesture typing a lot. Heliboard doesn’t come inbuilt with gesture typing but you have to import from closed source(?) data which is just a one time import (would like to know more on this one from someone more knowledgeable). So far, it has been great!

    I’m seeing way more ads at the top(at the top 5 of the search) related to the keyword I’m typing. For eg, if I am searching for a movie pirate website I would get ad results at the top which are paid like Netflix, Amazon Prime etc and no results related to the pirate site I’m searching. This is not how it used to be. I used to find those sites at the top 3 resuls. It was convenient.

    Yes duck assist is great and I like Duck ai as well.










  • I knew a woman on FB who thought that “thumbs upping” her comments was somehow offensive.

    Online texting/interactions do cause a lot of misunderstanding especially when you are talking to someone who is not very online.

    My friend wasn’t that simple though, she kept insisting that she didn’t care if I texted or not. Now that I think about it, I am not very sure to text her back.
