DDG has also become bad unfortunately. I used to add -site for quora and pinterest. But for some odd reason now a days it fails most of the time. Which has made the results very similar to Google. Plus they were always horrible at local search, atleast for most of the places where I lived.

https://search.brave.com/goggles - Is an interesting way of searching. But I just started using it recently. So still not sure about it.

https://kagi.com/ - Seems to be pretty decent, but it is paid.

But I am still searching. None of them seem to match old google. But that might be because the internet has changed with most of the actually useful information walled up.

The pages seem to take 20s on average to load. The entire site is very slow. Not sure if that is because of the update or something else.

Hasn’t the fertility rate in the US been going down from the 1960s? With immigrations covering the shortfall?

Actually looking at the data. It went down significantly in the 60 and 70s. Then picked up in the 80s, 90s and early 2000. Then started dropping again from 2010.

But one thing to note to seem to be that it never went past replacement rate after 1972. 2.1 is considered to the global number for replacement. So for the last 60 years or so immigration has kept the population growing in absolute terms.

Not making a political statement, I find it weird when people club a huge group of people into one bucket and brand them.

I do not like the terms but sticking to the terms here. It looks like the young boomers had a similar number of children to today and the older boomers were already dropping the number of children they were having.

But Gen-X had a higher rate for some reason.

I realized how much of a marketing cesspool Reddit has become once I left it. That along with the whole doom scrolling has been toxic to my mental health. So I am much better off without it.

That said, the fediverse seems to be a little too small especially for niche topics. Plus the this world still needs some tool/interface to unify it and make it easier to use. I still go back reddit once in a while for those niche communities but I have logged out for the first time in a decade+ from reddit.

I have started focusing on my hobbies more, the whole reddit fiasco has been a reminder that it is not just FB that is bad, it is everything including Reddit and in time possibly places like this if it grows.

I am also brand new to jupyterlabs and I came to find a solution to another issue.

But I noticed there is a toggle at the bottom “Simple”. Did you try toggling it on? That shows the name of the current path/document etc at the top of the page.

Hope that help, unless I totally misunderstood your question.
