Andrew (Television Executive)So, what's the move for search engine's these days?
Duck duck go is a wrapper on bing that censors itself.
Google is The Empire from Star Wars.
There was that little paid search engine that kept double down on AI.
Is there anything else?
DHeadshot's Alt@ajroach42 I guess it depends on whether you want mainstream stuff or the niches you enjoy? If the latter, things like marginalia etc. could probably work, but for general stuff I still find DDG is the least worst option, though they seem to be trying hard to change that...
@ajroach42 If you want even more niche than marginalia, there's the project @amin is working on...
Amin, minor deity of the legume realmMojeek is perhaps the biggest of the independent engines. As mentioned Marginalia and Clew fill similar spaces, but with Clew I don’t crawl large sites like Wikipedia and I down rank pages with ads and trackers. I also collect page size data and display it though I don’t currently use it as a ranking factor.
I’m finishing up on a huge refactor of Clew right now.
