So, it has been 3 months since I have been using #qwantsearch and so far, I am impressed.

Almost 90.69% of the time it served me well and was satisfied with the results, and even sometimes it has helped me dig up lesser known websites during some research.

The rest 9.31% of the time I had to rely on Google for search, on Vivaldi at least it is super easy to quickly switch your search engine to search something, almost as if they knew people would face this problem.

I used google for obscurer questions or lesser known programming related questions that I think google's algorithm is better at digging up.

So, yeah I am going to be continuing to use qwant going forward with no issues.

Seems like #Qwant is silently pulling the plug on #QwantMaps. First, they broke the exising handles: maps.qwant.com and qwant.com/maps started redirecting to their main website. map.qwant.com still works, but after the redesign they rolled out today, it is not even linked from the search anymore, so it's probably only a matter of time before it will be gone as well.
