At this point should we really be using these search engines? Feels like you’re just doing their work for them.
Very large part of why I moved away to kagi. It just works.
Additionally, it’s system of weighting, instead of just a binary block, is very useful. Take fandom wikis for example. They’re awful, yes, but sometimes they’re the only result for a topic, and will do if needed. With a binary block list, you either see them or you don’t. With the weighted system, you can downrank them, so if better results show up, they appear higher in the listing than the downranked ones
This. I think the best way to make the Internet less sh*tty is to get away from Google search.
I like the SearX search engine. It gives old-school, relevant search results, not google ranked ones.
It’s also spread out over many separate instances, so you can pick the one that best suits your search needs:
Thanks for this, I’ll give it a go.
This looks like it has some potential. I’ll probably give this a try.
