Ars TechnicaBing outage shows just how little competition Google search really has
Opinion: Actively searching without Google or Bing is harder than it looks.
HCJ@arstechnica It's funny how we all hate on bing but little do we realise how much we rely on it
Dan S. Camper 🇺🇸@arstechnica https://kagi.com for the win!
Isaac Lyman@dancamper @arstechnica Kagi sources search results (partially) from Google.
@isaaclyman @arstechnica While I agree on technical merits, Kagi appears to be much more. https://help.kagi.com/kagi/search-details/search-sources.html has some information on their sources.
I’m a fan of Kafi, enough that I’m actually paying for internet search, which is something I never thought I’d do.
Data point of 1, I know….
@dancamper @arstechnica No argument there, Kagi does have the best search results of the modern web. I was a customer for a while. I’m currently unsubscribed in protest of the CEO’s behavior, but we’ll see how long that lasts.
Bot4Sale@arstechnica I've never used it but according to https://avoidthehack.com/best-private-search Brave search does not rely on Bing or Google for search results. It may have other issues however (ie. privacy issues)
Irina@Bot4Sale @arstechnica I'm avoiding Brave like the plague because of the privacy and bigotry issues.
Epistomai@arstechnica me using qwant, duck duck go, and everything else than those two.

@arstechnica So what? Who needs Google or Bing?
Finnley DolfinAnd I’m over here still using Lycos
margual56@arstechnica there is always search.brave.com and searx.github.io
Tom@arstechnica I used #searxng during the outage of duckduckgo.
