you don't have to tell me information about why Rui's drive is gone, I just googled it because I forgot their name (I thought it was Anadius' drive at first)

Google search is complete shite nowadays. We're just lucky nobody is advertising for those keywords.

The research is from Duck Go Go as most people have already said but I appreciate your comment offending Google. More people should do this nowadays!

eh, ddg is just bing. Only marginally better ideologically, and probably worse practically.

fr!! im always confused when people advertise ddg as 'the best privacy browser' when it is well-known their results are bing's, also the huge marketing campaign they did about how they're 'the most private and respect your privacy' just weirded me out?? like it was a bit suspicious idk. oh yeah and that thing where the mobile ddg browser allowed microsoft trackers on microsoft ads because of their deal with bing (hey that rhymed!!)

++ half the time when i searched for anything moderately obscure there would be 0 results, or even if i didnt search for stuff like that i'd get results completely unrelated to my query.

What's a good web search engine nowadays?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

None. There's no good ones. There's at best acceptable ones

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

meaning the afore mentioned or do you have some tips

Like I've said elsewhere, I've had good results finding pirated media using the Brave search engine. The main downside is that it's run by Brave, and they are a bunch of cryptobros

I've been liking searxng. It aggregates results from search engines you select and returns the results without being tracked by them.

https://docs.searxng.org/

https://searx.space/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SearXNG

SearXNG is a free and open-source federated metasearch engine forked from Searx. SearXNG supports over 70 different search engines. Similar to Searx, it does not collect information about users.

I've had an easy time finding pirated stuff using the Brave search engine. Main downside is that its run by Brave. Not the best of people imho.
