Browsing the web I came across this (meta) search engine. From the first glance, it seems promising and giving quite a good results to my searches. Definitely better than Google, Bing or DDG, which tend to be full of SEO/ads/AI bullshit these days. Does anyone use it?

It somehow implies it’s open source and indeed there is github https://github.com/PresearchOfficial too, but I can’t find any link from the presearch.com itself to it. It’s just… IDK, weird?

    Yeah, that crypto part must be new(ish). I remember it definitely wasn’t there about half year ago when I first find out presearch. I believe it had no account to create either.

    Well, I’ll give SearXNG another chance I assume.

      Unrelated, but I’ve never seen someone use the word “assume” that way before. It technically works, I think?

        I don’t know, the best I can do is hope. I’m not a native speaker and my english lessons are long gone, so I put words here and there as they came to my mind hoping the other side will understand… Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.

          Hey cool! I’m native and I still don’t always know if the way I’m talking is correct, but nobody really cares. If they do and take issue with it, it’s not worth worrying about.

        As a native speaker, I read it as:

        I haven’t given it much thought, but there’s a good chance I’ll give it a shot.

        It’s a bit awkward, but I skipped over it and grasped what I assume was the intended meaning, so it’s fine. Better words would be “suppose” or “guess” in this context.

      Lol it was there, I used to use it during the pandemic and the earning for each search thing was def there in 2020.

      They might not make it as obvious anymore though
