We all need to stop using this as our default search engine
What do you suggest? Because even Mozilla uses Google for its search.
Duck duck?
Which is just bing with a few extra editorial changes that aren't really transparent.
What do you use?
Only recently started using searngx. I would love to see more search engines implement their own indexing and ranking, instead of relying on other engines.
But I am aware that making a good search engine is hard. Even with all their flaws, google and Bing still have the best results, which is why most other engines rely on their results.
I also wanted to mention that DDG doesn't really say what editorial changes they make to the results. I would like to see more transparency.
