• About 43,000 construction union members in South Korea march for better safety laws and against the new anti-worker president Yoon (Feb 28, 2023)

  DuckDuckGo is really good when it comes to privacy, but just as bad as google with showing information. Even though it doesn't tell you most of the top results on DuckDuckGo are ads, they paid to be the top results. It also tends to filter out non politically correct information. I haven't been able to find any real alternative to this except maybe Swisscows and Mojeek. These search engines provide fully... Source: about 1 year ago

• I want to dive into how to make search engines

  Missing: https://yippy.com https://unbubble.eu https://symbolhound.com https://www.exalead.com https://www.searchencrypt.com https://suggest.hulbee.com IME, analysing alternative "search engines" will reveal most are a waste of time. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What happened to Yippy search?

  Yippy.com was a great alternative to the mainstream search engines, it reminded me of an improved altavista from back in the day. But yippy.com now redirects to DDG, and I can't find any word as to why. The "Try YIPPY Search" link on yippyinc.com also gets redirected. I'm hoping this is a temporary situation due to increased demand. Back to Qwant I suppose. Source: about 3 years ago

• What is going on with search engines these days?

  DuckDuckGo & Co. - DDG, Swisscows and Ecosia all use Bing index. For people that only care about privacy, this is a non-issue. But I don't like the idea that the entirety of web currently depends on just two companies. So I personally don't use them. Same logic extends to Startpage, which is owned by an ad company & uses Google's results. As they rely on the Big 2, they're closer to frontends/MetaSearch engines in... Source: over 1 year ago

• WTF Delaware

  I recommend you use swisscows.com to search instead, its not censored in the same way that duckduckgo.com and google.com is censored with different results appearing. Source: over 1 year ago

• I thought Brave didn't collect data? Am I missing something.

  I use brave, google (for technical subjects when I can't find answer with brave), and for anything that has a remote chance to be censored I use engines with their own crawlers : fireball.de, gigablast.com, yandex.com and other browsers to be sure but I don't think they have their own crawler : lycos.com, swisscows.com, mojeek.com, metager.de. We would need a locally served meta search engine that search on all... Source: over 1 year ago
