Searching for free open source solutions for a shared calendar and task planner, so a community group can avoid using Google apps.

This is harder than I imagined. Taking a peek at element & matrix.org meanwhile, still fumbling.

are there practically usable alternates to commercial search engines (e.g. google, bing, duckduckgo)?
Extensive bookmarking / shared curated lists is a partial solution. Any recommendation for cool local bookmarking apps that are browser independent is appreciated as well.
Is Yacy actually usable?
Also poking around in r/degoogle for ideas.

My typical use case for commercial search engines is largely a stepping stone to wiki, known news sites, etc. Occasionally its a "what does the internet know about <topic>"? Short of leveraging a commercial index sitting in a massive server farm, whats the next closest answer?

Is there such a thing as a local search aggregator? I'm thinking that it would fire off search queries to wiki, reddit, specific news sites, (some user definable list of sites), and present the feedback?

Am I missing any major topics or solutions in my search?

Den danska sökmotorn Stract har ett eget index. "..improve the performance of our index." Huvuddelen av alternativa (eller vad man ska kalla det) sökmotorer tar hjälp av Google, Bing eller kombinationer av dem. Exempelvis Ecosia, Qwant, Swisscows, Startpage. Tycker det är kul och bra med mer självständighet.

About Marginalia Search

Ever feel like the Internet has gotten a bit… I don’t know, samey? There’s funny images scrolling by and you blow some air through your nose and keep scrolling and then someone has done something upsetting and you write an angry comment and then you scroll some more. Remember when you used to explore the Internet, when you used to discover cool little websites made by people and it wasn’t just a bunch of low effort content mill listicles and blog spam?

A visualisation of a man clicking on a search result after googling I'm feeling lucky.
