You're using it, RIGHT anon?

Im thinking of dropping it ever since they put in this AI BS

>>105766342 (OP)
yes i am. i dont wanna bother finding a 4get instance that actually works

>>105766342 (OP)
No I use Ecosia. It might be shit, but at least the money goes towards planting trees.

>>105766382
you can disable it. and desu search summary is one of the only usecases for LLMs

>>105766422
>planting trees
>so corpos can cut them down for wood
the ocean makes more oxygen than trees

>>105766423
and it can do a programmers job fairly easily

>>105766342 (OP)
Yeah, it's the less annoying engine (no captcha before every other search), and I like !banging (your mom btw)

>>105766342 (OP)
they were in bed with microsoft, fuck em
I'm piping my data directly to brave now

>>105766342 (OP)
nah I'm back on google
99% of the stuff I'm searching get answered by appending "reddit" or "wiki" anyways if not I'm using chatgpt or desu/b4k archive, and I actually want google maps answers for local shit not whatever these other search engines use

>>105766342 (OP)
nope

>>105766342 (OP)
No because Startpage is better

>>105766342 (OP)
Since when did they started adding tracking to their results link? I only found out a while ago, how the fuck do I turn that off?

>>105769215
Isnt searx the best alternative?

>>105769215
>>105769358
>T. terrorist pedophiles who have many illegal things to hide!
Kek!

>>105769376
Sure bro, now go back to twitter.

>>105769414
I'm not your "bro", buster! Also, I'm staying right here! :3

I don't even like the X anyway!

>>105766342 (OP)
I stopped using them after they started implementing shit they promised they never would.

>>105766342 (OP)
lol no. just use google and have them track your ever move and thought.

>>105766342 (OP)
its dog shit. I use yandex.

>>105769456
Kill yourself.

>>105769331
Someone?

No, I'm using startpage.

>>105769475
You forgot to say please anon. Show some manners.

>>105769475
No you! ;p

>>105769522
You're such a silly boy! :3

>>105769484
Is it on the HTML only search page too?

>>105769553
Yes

>>105769215
I want to switch to Startpage but can’t because on iOS and iPadOS you are limited to a few of them if you want to continue using Safari. There are certain things that I prefer on Safari, so I’m fucked. This iToddler has been BTFO.

>>105769773
Applebros...

Swisscows is good too, but its definitely missing from the majority of browsers

>>105766342 (OP)
nope, dropped it for brave search

>>105766342 (OP)
No, it's terrible. I tried for a month and gave up on it. Startpage just works better.

>>105766382
This.
I'm more inclined to use Chrome again. At least they respect user privacy.

>>105769773
You can, download the extension customize search engine. Then you set the search engine you want and select which one the extension "replaces".

>>105766342 (OP)
im using it,, but the search and the duck.ai are isolated from each other via Firefox Multiaccount Containers. the cool thing about duck.ai is that you don't need to log in to the service.

So? What's the best search engine?

>>105770577
There isn't one

>>105766342 (OP)
Brave search has an independend index. DDG is glorified (and decently private) bing search

>>105769358
Searx is good, but its a meta search engine: meaning its not itself a search engine, but rather it lets you combine results from multiple ones (it is a bit more complicated than that but you get the idea).

>>105770403
Lol no they dont what are you talking about

>>105766342 (OP)
No. It's made by a jew and no better than other jew search engines at anything (privacy included).

>>105766342 (OP)
i am because i dont trust google

>>105766342 (OP)
Cured my browser hopping and supports Mother Russia. What's not to like?

>>105766342 (OP)
I do but I'm 99% sure they're selling my search results anyway. Only real advantage is they don't have access to my google accounts wiht my personal information on it so it's worthless to me.

>>105770830
So searx is the best alternative then right?

>>105769553
Alright I figured it out, apparently ddg ONLY adds tracking if it found out your using Tor, if your using any other browser it doesnt, huh. Way to fucking glow

>>105766342 (OP)
Glowing piece of shit

>>105766342 (OP)
I use le shill lion.
