   Mixed feelings

   We used their DC proxies and Residential proxies. Resi proxies were having quite low success rate. We had to use resi solution from other proxy providers. Unblocker didn't work well either also it was way too expensive.

   🏁 Competitors: Smartproxy, NetNut.io

   👍 Pros:    Cheap dc proxies

   👎 Cons:    Quite expensive|Residential proxies are worse than competitiors

• Ask HN: Little or even unknown website that you like to use?

  Https://grep.app - To search repos for patterns. I usually use it when I'm using an obscure or badly documented library. https://unicode.scarfboy.com/ - Unicode stuff. There are a lot of small Unicode tool sites. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Nginx Has Moved to GitHub

  There are some alternatives like https://grep.app or https://sourcegraph.com/search if you want fast live search, but at the end of the day these are generally expensive services to provide, especially for free anonymous users, so you should probably at least accept that service providers can and do change things like this. You can also run something like your own copy of Zoekt and then ingest repositories on... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Sourcegraph Went Dark

  Https://grep.app/ is another good one. Not sure how many repos they index though. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Code Finder – The ultimate search engine for GitHub repositories

  Https://grep.app/ is similar and seems to return results, but I have not compared it to native GitHub search. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Grep.app Alternative?

  Https://grep.app/ has served me well for the last couple of years finding snippets for random APIs. But recently I found that certain strings from open-source projects suddenly yield no results. For example: VaultServiceTimeout from https://github.com/rajanadar/VaultSharp has no results for https://grep.app/search?q=VaultServiceTimeout. Is there some alternative service for this task that is up-to-date? - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
