πŸ€” This is *not* a good look.

Is Bing actively trying to stifle the #indieWeb & the #smallWeb ? Who knows!

Regardless - what you can do:
- pick a different search engine if you are using Bing. #Qwant and #Startpage (and #DuckDuckGo - see note below) come to mind as great first picks.
- start up your own little #indieWeb #smallWeb site! Share what you like. It doesn't have to be complicated. A small blog, a digital garden.
- seek out #webrings, share content from small/indie sites that you enjoy!

update - see interesting notes from other users re: DuckDuckGo, which claims to at least partially use Bing, but shows NeoCities in results.

What do we do now that search engines no longer work ?

Bring back webrings ?? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring

Are there any other ways to find good content that don't rely on mega corps ?

πŸ“† 2025: Week 47/52
[Nov 17 – 23]

✍️ https://burgeonlab.com/weeknotes/2025/w47/

Another late week note... I'll definitely try to write one earlier this week! Week 47 is all about #Indieweb! There's #IRC, #webrings, #webmentions and a smattering of links I came across.

Weeknote 2025-W47: Diverse Discoveries via the IndieWeb

Learning more about the IndieWeb led me to setting up IRC, joining webrings, getting my first Webmentions, and connecting with amiable fellow bloggers.

@taatm @molly0xfff the Web1.0 (pre Web2.0 of corporate walled gardens) solution was simple: RSS/email lists + webrings.

it should be adopted by the coming Web1.0+ - a de-centralized, federated internet, ran for and by People, often self-hosted, where corporations do NOT control what we see or can do and access, but now with obscenely fast broadband and stupid powerful processors, running on FOSS =D

Webrings are alive and well. I have proof!

Jazz up some internet favorites with OP

We now have an official dev blog on the docs site. First entry is a roundup of all the things we've added in our first proper release. That includes #webrings, a powerful #api, multi-site #rss feeds, and more. Check it out at https://docs.octothorp.es/blog/point-oh-five/ And, using OP, we created a webring to group all the sites involved in development. You can follow a single RSS feed for post from any of those sites using #octothorpe-news to get updates, wherever they come from. Follow here: https://octothorp.es/get/everything/in-webring/rss/?s=https://docs.octothorp.es/dev-webring&o=octothorpe-news
