   Brave Search is way better than other search engines.

   In contrast to other "private" search engines (except for Presearch and SearX), it doesn't have trackers, or not nearly as many. This information can be verified by installing uBlock Origin and ClearURLs, which detect 0 and 2 trackers respectively, against for example DuckDuckGo's nearly 10 and 19. Other alternatives are SearX (No trackers AT ALL, still kinda user-friendly) and Presearch (A bit easier to use but a tiny bit worse for privacy, it has 1 more tracking element).

   🏁 Competitors: DuckDuckGo, Mojeek, StartPage, Presearch, Searx, Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ecosia, Ask.com, Qwant

   👍 Pros:    Good search results|Not too many trackers|Not buggy|Easy to use

   👎 Cons:    Has 2 tracking url elements

• Google Removed 749M Anna's Archive URLs from Its Search Results

  Brave search is also quite nice: https://search.brave.com/ I find Google to generally have some of the worst search results of modern engines with one exception - Google tends to be good at digging up results from things like forums/message boards that don't end up getting listed on other search engines. I don't entirely understand why this is because other engines also have them indexed and work fine with... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Google admits anti-competitive conduct involving Google Search in Australia

  Try https://www.startpage.com/, https://search.brave.com/, https://kagi.com/ or https://github.com/searxng/searxng. You.com used to have really good search, but it looks like they have veered off into the AI chat space instead. Searxng is a self hostable meta search engine that allows you to basically just use the best search engines and easily switch between them. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
