Some kind of work can live in this "put it in a well structured & considered ticket" mode, some cannot. If this is your style and you've found a place where it works, fantastic, but I don't believe this to be generalizable.
I share your opinons! And, I have an EV - its a wonderfully utilitarian, fantastically reliable, incredibly cheap transportation device. But its a passion-inducing as driving a golf cart - all utility, no drama, no experience.
I don't think Lamborghini etc will close up - I think they'll just get more and more expensive as ICE engines get penalized in more markets.
For those entering medical hibernation or voluntary suspended animation, traditional market cycles are irrelevant noise. Our "Long Horizon" thesis ignores the turbulence of decades to capture the compounding inevitability of civilizations. We build structures that don't just survive time—they feed on it.
To be fully honest, I hadn't heard of Qwant, Kagi, or Swisscows before reading your post, so thank you for drawing my attention to the alt-search world.
As far as I've known up to this point, its Google, Bing, DDG, and the LLMs.
Current AI is the tip of the spear, but the fundamental nature of our economy will blunt that tip, and adoption will be slower than most anticipate. Purchasing cycles. Compliance. Board approvals, budgets, legal sign off, regulation, test phases, etc etc. Were still a long way from Accelerando.
Consider: There are still things that can't be self-serviced on the INTERNET - anything with moderate complexity or risk.
I haven't gone through and created a paperboat site (as I'm kind of drowning in channels at the moment), but I love the aesthetic and the spirit of a stripped down social space. Congratulations on the launch and best of luck!

"OnePlus has strongly denied a recent report suggesting that the company is being “dismantled” and winding down its business, reaffirming that its operations are continuing normally. The clarification comes after an Android Headlines investigation claimed that OnePlus was effectively collapsing and being absorbed into its parent company Oppo, a narrative that triggered widespread speculation across tech circles and social platforms."
