Google is pretty much trash these days. Looking for a legit search engine.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Between Kagi and Duck Duck Go, I find pretty much everything.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'm gonna have to give in and pay for Kagi I suppose but as soon as I do pay that's when it turns to shit lol

I've been on my original 100 free searches or whatever it is for like 6 months. I just use it occasionally when DDG can't get the job done, and it often comes through where the other engines can't.

AltaVista? Excite?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

SearXNG is pretty nice, you can also configure which engines it uses if you don't like the results. I host a small instance at search.gregtech.eu.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Not anymore, though. Use a different search engine if you want any results worth looking at.

It actually harms Google a little in regards to trademark if it becomes a common verb.

Same thing nearly happened to Xerox, people used Xerox to mean "make a copy" so much they nearly lost the trademark to it

For the same reason I refuse to refer to mastodon or bluesky posts as anything other than tweets.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Ah, so they enshittified the search on purpose.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Well yes, but for a different reason.

They make their money on ads, so if it takes you multiple clicks or searches to get the answer you want, they sell more ads.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

OPs post is about random 'ass' questions

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Guess we started a conversation

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Less ass than I was hoping for

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago
