In plain words
Uruky is an EU-based search engine offering image search and URL rewrite features as alternatives to Kagi. New users can access a two-hour free trial by completing a proof-of-work captcha when first topping up their account. The service is planning to adopt a source-available permissive license for code sharing rather than requiring non-disclosure agreements. It targets users seeking privacy-focused search functionality with European hosting.

In the maker’s words, at launch
You can get a 2h free trial by solving a proof-of-work captcha when topping up your account for the first time. If you'd like to learn more, an independent interview was posted a couple of weeks ago [1], and the FAQ [2] has a lot of information as well. For the source code sharing, we've talked with lawyers and are inclined to no longer require the NDA/NCC for privacy reasons shared with us before (signing requires identification), but instead use a source-available permissive license that doesn't allow competition, like PolyForm Shield [3] (we do still have about 6 months before finalising a decision, here). This does come with a lot more risks for us (it's harder to track down if someone publishes the code or uses it against the license), but given we've already passed 100 monthly active accounts, we're feeling more confident it's an acceptable risk. The plan is to give logged in accounts (who are 12 months old or more) a way to download a ZIP of the current code base that's in the server. Obviously there's no easy way to prove that's the case, but we're open to ideas/suggestions if someone here has them. [1]: https://theprivacydad.com/interview-with-the-engineer-of-uru...

Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
