I love what the kagi team is doing, and being some of the first innovators maybe since the ladybird(?) browser, even if it's using the same base of webkit, not being a fork of chrome or firefox. I wish they'd bring it to android, but it doesn't look like they're interested.
Kagi is a pretty small team and they’ve got a LOT on their plate. Orion started on macOS and was in development for 6 years before finally hitting their 1.0 release in November. Give it time - I’m sure they’d love to support just about every major OS and platform.
It is interesting that they don't mention future Android support anywhere on the website, but it does seem like they are (or at least were) open to the idea someday.
The meme of 'ADHD as the "fucked up attention span disorder"' has done immeasurable damage to people, neurotypical and ADHD alike. it is the attribute that is the least important to my life, but most centered towards the neurotypical, or the other people it bothers.
> modern life fucks up your attention span
That said, this statement is true, it's just a fundamental misunderstanding of ADHD as "dog like instinct to go chase a squirrel" or whatever. Google is free, so is Chatgpt if that's too hard.
> I'm not sure it's healthy to want to put a label on everything
I don't particularly care for microlabeling, but it's usually harmless, nothing suggest the alternative of "just stop talking about your problems" is better. People create language usually because they want to label a shared idea. This is boomer talk (see "remember facebook?" no)
> or medicate to fall back on the baseline
I'm not sure "If you have ADHD you should simply suffer because medicine is le bad" is a great stance, but you're allowed I suppose
> it is the attribute that is the least important to my life
still one of the most common symptom, and the one everyone use to self diagnose...
> because medicine is le bad
idk man, I've seen the ravage of medicine one people close to me. Years of adhd medicine, anti depressants pills, anti obesity treatments... They're still non functional, obese and depressed, but now they're broke and think there truly is no way out of the pit because they "tried everything" (everything besides not playing video games 16 hours a day, eating junk food 24/7 and never going out of their bedroom, but the doctors don't seem to view this as a root cause)
Whatever you think, I believe some things are over prescribed to the point of being a net negative to society. I never said adhd doesn't exist or shouldn't be treated btw, you seem to be projecting a lot of things. If it works for you good, personally I prefer to change my environment to fit how my brain/body works, not influence my body/brain by swallowing side effects riddled pills until death to fit in the fucked up world we created and call "normality"

Just try harder to make insulin, bro. You can outthink that t1 diabetes if you try hard enough.
This weird macho resistance to and scorn of anyone using the mental tools we have available is why men kill themselves at a much higher rate. There is no award for who struggled the most in life.
Do they always work? No. Do they work for a lot of people? Sure do. Can they be replaced with diet and exercise and different circumstances? Yeah, sometimes. Is that realistic? Not usually.
They aren't magic. They don't forcibly make you happy or change your personality or make your problems go away. You still have to do the work. But they're a crane to help lift the crushing weight you're under so you can shimmy out from under it.
If you don't want to use them, fine, but not using them doesn't make you a better person.
> still one of the most common symptom, and the one everyone use to self diagnose...
I, and pretty much everyone I talked to who was diagnosed with adhd in late teenage years on, actually primarily used executive dysfunction to self diagnose and then persued official treatment. you pulled that straight outta your asshole, shove it back up there
> doctors don't seem to view this as a root cause
how the hell would doctors know? bring this to any psych and they'd immediately tell you to knock that shit off, but what the hell else are they supposed to do?
> I never said adhd doesn't exist or shouldn't be treated btw
your opinions seems to boil down to "lmao just try harder", which seems less useful than throwing pills at the problem. you have the mental model of a cat
> proooojecting
the words of someone who can't articulate their position
I take ritalin as needed, 20-30mg a day. A black coffee will usually make me just a little sleepier, if anything at all. a couple more will do the same. Ritalin can make me sleepy if I'm already deeply tired, but after ~30min will actually allow me to partially focus on off days, and be able to get more work done on normal days. I may not need it every day.
> is making life easier with medication worth the cost over just dealing with it by naturally by adapting to it over time (if even possible in your case)?
I am now 20, admittedly "early" in my career. Through high school and the first 2 years of university I have banged my head against ADHD and tried to just "power through it" or adapt. Medication isn't a magic bullet, but it is clear to me at least now that I am at least able to rely on it as a crutch in order to improve myself and my lifestyle to deal with what is at least for me, truly a disability. Maybe one day I won't need it, but in the mean time I see no reason why attempt #3289 will work for real this time to turn around my life.
> "No spinners" gets super annoying when devices go to sleep or internet is spotty. Am I looking at the latest data? Is it safe to turn off my phone / exit the app, or is still uploading? I dunno, let's give it a minute just in case...
This is easily solvable with any sort of sync button. Granted, you may in fact have to at least in name break "no spinners" (but to my understanding not in practice), and shove one in the top right corner of your app when syncing / uploading / downloading is occuring, but obviously it's better than just sitting there and waiting.
That is not correct. Dynamic linking is natively supported in Rust. How else do you make modules for scripting languages like Python (using PyO3) [1]? It uses the stable C API (cdylib).
