What search engine is currently showing the most useful results? What other tricks do we have aside of adding “reddit” or whatever internet community to the results?

    Not sure where you are, but there’s practically no place in the US you get a lunch for that. In flat terms it’s quite cheep. It’s only expensive relative to free.

    And when you think about it, your search service really is your internet. It shapes your whole internet experience. If that’s not worth $5/month to make sure it’s good and not polluted with ads, I don’t know what to tell you.

        I felt similarly about this, but upon reflecting, if the searches actually worked and didn’t ‘come in groups of 5’ due to SEO trash, it probably works out?

        Haven’t tried it myself yet, but I have been finding myself in increasing frustration with Google and degenerate article sausage factories…

        I wasn’t sure ethor. My first month (last month), I used just over 180. This month might break 200, I have 5 days left. So I’m good.

      Problem is, 300 searches is 10 per day. I’ve done 52 today. To cover that I’d be paying $25 per month.

      I you could have Spotify and Netflix for that.

      If I’d paid their $5 rate and done 52 searches every day they’d have billed me $63 in overage charges.

      Their pricing model seems insane to me.

        ((52x30)-1000)0.015 is $8.40 over the $10 plan. You wouldn’t need the $25 plan yet.

        And 52 is a huge number. I’d bet you could cut that in half easily.
