We all know the struggle of beloved services slowly going downhill. What’s one service, tool, or website you’ve been using for years that’s still great and hasn’t turned to crap?

    Good point. I would prefer to crowdsource the whitelist I think. Also, it would be cool to do stuff like search youtube but bring up a link to a dis-enshittified youtube intermediary.

      That is also something you can do with Kagi. 😆 I have it set up so that all YouTube results redirect me to Invidious, as well as Reddit and Twitter for their respective frontends.

          To create a redirect:

          1. Go to https://kagi.com/settings/redirects
          2. Click “Add Rule”
          3. In the bottom box, use the following format to create your redirect:
          ^https://original.domain.tld/|https://new.domain.tld/

          For example, to replace www.youtube.com with inv.nadeko.net (an Invidious instance), you can use the rule

          ^https://www.youtube.com/|https://inv.nadeko.net/

          I’ve also created a copy of this rule for any youtu.be results, as well as X/Twitter and Reddit for their respective frontends. This will work for any pair of websites if you can simply replace the domain in the URL and have it pull up the correct content on the alternative website.

            Thanks for this!

            Where the heck is this advanced page linked to? Maybe it’s not shown by default on mobile, but there is no advanced menu section or button in the settings page for me when I view it on my phone.

            Directly typing the advanced url works of course but this is super frustrating that it’s not visible for me otherwise. I wonder what else I’m not seeing as I mostly interact with Kagi on mobile
