Historically, they have both been relying mostly on the Bing index, with Qwant building its own index for a while and serving a mix.

Both already mostly relied mostly on ads before this partnership. Nothing changed. But perhaps they will need less ads if running their own search index is cheaper than using Bing’s.
Would love this. Hopefully Qwant and Ecosia can make it happen soon.
Either way, I use ecosia without as blockers because I want this to happen asap.
