rhizomancer 🏴@Tutanota Seems like I am doing good thus far 
I would suggest adding PeerTube as a YouTube alternative as well, and, reading what GrapheneOS posted recently about Murena and /e/, I don't know if it should be recommended at all.
Also for Maps: Organic Maps and CoMaps!
Alexa Devreux-SwiftQwant is excellent IMHO
Guy Incognito@Tutanota SearXNG all the way. ✊

LibertyBeta@Tutanota MetaGer is new one to me.
@Tutanota do you by any chance know some good alternatives to google scholar?
Albertone@albertone @Tutanota Thx, didnt know that one before but the first searches looked good:)
Stingray Villa Cozumel@Tutanota I like Ecosia from your list. It is nice to change search areas
Lucas Bentley@Tutanota Does any deGoogle, de Microsoft folk like any of these options?
• DuckDuckGo

• Aloha
• Firefox Focus
• SnowHaze

Johnny Doe@bentley_lucas @Tutanota DuckDuckGo is nice, but to my understanding is mostly (or was) a frontend for Bing similar as Startpage is for Google. Do think they have their own crawlers, how much of their results is their own crawlers and Bing don't know. Brave search is probably the biggest independent search engine index, apart from Google and Bing. Why tuta doesn't mention this is because of "reasons" I guess.
kikebenlloch@bentley_lucas I like DDG and have used it for many years. Firefox focus, occasional use, it's alright IMHO.

Sibshops@Tutanota https://noai.duckduckgo.com/ deserves a mention, too.
Bogdan Buduroiu@Tutanota What's wrong with Kagi?
@budududuroiu We missed them, we will add them next time though. 😊
@Tutanota What's wrong with Kagi?
Stijn van Drongelen@budududuroiu @Tutanota See here, especially the postmortem: https://d-shoot.net/kagi.html . For me, the most salient bits are that 1) the CEO knows fuck-all about privacy law and thus refuses to comply with the simplest of GDPR requests, and 2) the postmortem paints a picture of a CEO who doesn't respect a "stop contacting me".
nommie ✌️🩵@Tutanota personally i’m a brave search kinda girl.
independent index, no ties to google (unless you let it) or bing unlike most of these
ai is optional (you don’t have to add “-ai” every time, i switched it off once first use and never saw it again)
and it brings up the convert tool quickly when you search what something is in a different unit of measurement, like so (only SE other than google i know of that does that):
retrimentalYeah I was using Brave search very recently. I opted for it because as far as I can recall, they have their own crawlers/indexers or whatever they're called.
I switched recently to self-hosting SearXNG and although SearXNG doesn't have its own crawlers, I can still use Brave search results (and basically most other search engine results) that I want.
Admittedly though, I'm lazy and my solution isn't as polished as Brave.
Vsevolod@Tutanota
Most of them (ecosia, startpage, searx, metager, etc.)
proxy google/bing search or both - aka metasearch engines.
Mojeek and brave seem to have own *proprietary* crawlers.
Didn't use Million Short as an offer to create an account makes me scratch my head.
A standalone option is distributed search engine called YaCy, but it's rather
not well packaged for linux.

Joseph Lamoree@Tutanota I’ve used Kagi for nearly two years. It’s a very good service that I feel comfortable paying to support. I tend to avoid free offerings that treat me as the product.
DigitalDigger@Tutanota that screenshot is worth a thousand words
