    I can’t get the “more accurate” Google search to return anything but Lemmy results 🤣

    Never trying this again.

    FYI: The whoogle options don’t work well. Everything else seems fine though.

    This is great, thanks for sharing.

    If anyone knows and other good search engines for the fediverse let me(us?) know. Im trying to find something that isnt just a small wrapper around google/bing/etc…

      Kagi’s pretty good and has a Fediverse search feature, but it’s paid. I don’t mind paying, but there’s also no way to do private searches that way, so I’m not going to use it as my main search engine. It’s been good at hunting down memes on Lemmy that I want to find again though.

        I’m trying out yacy and it’s hitting the same spot. My only issue is self hosting seems to not work well for yunohost so I may need to find a way to run it alternatively somehow.

        You might already know this, but you can use a Kagi without logging in on private tabs using a “session link” that looks like https://kagi.com/search?token=[LONG TOKEN HERE]. (Of course, this session link is not perfectly anonymous because the token is presumably tied to your account.)
