Since DuckDuckGo has decided to regionalize all my search results even when no region is selected (why?!? 😩),

Making my work impossible (I don't spend my day writing about Canada DuckDuckGo! 🙄),

I have started to use @Mojeek and I must say that it is a real joy. I find what I'm looking for much quicker, no patronizing regionalization based on IP, and no AI pollution. It feels like I found back the 2010s web and I'm here for it.

Thank you Mojeek 💚

@Mojeek @Em0nM4stodon I guess I can reimplement !bangs (at least those I often use) myself. Which is better, because then I can choose which backend will handle each bang, e.g. I can use a self-hosted QR generation service for !qr instead of the weird one DDG uses.
