Very strange. I've got roughly 40k photos and Immich runs just fine on i5-6xxx old minipc with 8 gigs of ram. Migrated to Immich a couple of years ago from Photoprism (which was fine as well, I just prefer the UI of Immich).

Yeah, and it feels like we’re sliding back the same way.

>but it felt like they didn't value it enough to give

I still feel like this.

>It doesn't feel rude if somebody breaks out their phone mid-conversation and starts scrolling for a little bit.

And I do not agree about this either. Also, I think most of the people I spend my time with would also agree. But perhaps I'm (unfortunately) an outlier.

Computers definitely do not seem that important for young people of today. They can get quite far by using phone with a few apps (social media, browser, etc.) Not that I think this is a good thing, but simply my observation.

They’re not important to (most) young people today for the same reasons health insurance plans aren’t important to young people today: they just haven’t reached the professional world yet. Once they get there, computers suddenly become very important.

Many people who are not tech enthusiasts will be interacting with a computer for at least 40 hours a week or more for nearly half of their lives. If you used any other tool that much, you’d want to get really good at using it. Why shouldn’t the same hold for computers today?

I guess it depends on what you mean by "quite far"

Regardless of what they choose to use for their leisure time, computers will still be important in school and likely at work in the future. Not to mention that many young people still use computers regularly for leisure (gaming, chatting, etc)

In any case, learning touch typing would still translate somewhat to typing on a phone - certainly things are different, but getting used to where the letters are still helps.

Probably just got used to it. It was IMO very good plugin 5 years ago or so before all the ads etc.

Yeah, but they paid a vastly lower percentage of their paycheck than people nowadays do (at least here in western EU)

>absolutely worse from a security perspective than passwords

Is it though? Majority (if not all) services I frequently use have email as recovery option for forgotten passwords.

It is certainly not all, and most security conscious sites offer other recovery options like one time use codes. Many also allow for time delayed account recovery, which aren’t a usable option for magic links.

In any case the correct approach here is to fix password reset/account recovery (e.g. with social key recovery) rather than reduce everything to the lowest common denominator.

It also can be said to lower security because it instills the behavior of clicking on links in incoming emails as a standard practice.

Does not really matter as long as they offer it in EU countries.

Even so, it doesn't matter unless the CEO ever sets foot in the EU, I suppose.

(Do you regularly check to make sure you're obeying laws in countries you don't ever intend to visit? No? Then why should Kagi?)

This should matter if Kagi ever intends to do business in the EU.

I suppose a serious breach of regulations, and if Kagi decided to ignore fines, apart from a bad reputation, could ultimately lead to things like judicial decisions of blocking access to the website or blocking payments for EU customers.

I think this is an interesting topic.

The scope of GDPR is clearly including businesses operating from the US, but has any company registered only in the US ever been fined by EU?
