Alternative to google search engine, Kagi
Just a PSA about Kagi: https://snoo.habedieeh.re/r/ukraine/comments/1gvcqua/psa_the_kagi_search_engine_directly_funds_yandex/
DuckDuckGo has suspended its partnership with Yandex in 2022. https://www.vox.com/recode/22981115/duckduckgo-free-speech-privacy-oops
Why is that a problem exactly?
Is it just because they're Russian?
Are there some dots I'm not connecting?
Yes Steve. Because they are Russian, pay their taxes in Russia and therefore finance the war. They can potentially introduce biases in their search results as well.
Please note that it's just a PSA. Do what you want with this information.
russia is the no-no country for doing bad things, like starting pointless wars and terrorizing a civilian population. so you can't support them. you'll have to find other alternatives to your services that support bad countries doing bad things.
