How many of us have to spam links to piratebay in comments on website-x, to have Google delist website-x in those countries?

I haven't used Google search in years. Their monopoly on the Internet is really trash.

[–] ImminentOrbit@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (7 children)

Which search engine do you prefer? I've been looking to switch because the results are not as good as they used to be in my opinion, but I'm not sure which of these other ones are better?

I've been very happy with duckduckgo.

[–] SchizoDenji@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

Honestly, duckduckgo isnt as bad and easier to switch to.

Kagi. It's a subscription but it has a lot of good features and no advertised.

[–] Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Duckduckgo has been my default for a couple years. It's excellent.

Agreed. I won't provide a link for the sake of not getting the site tarnished but I'll just say I've been attending a certain party that has proven decently reliable.

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

The link goes to a site that has links, so nothing to worry about.

Thepiratebay.org has been blocked for almost 10 years in Norway, now. This doesn't make a difference, whatsoever

Funny thing is... you can still find it with duckduckgo, search.brave.com, qwant, searx..

plus even on google, you can click any of the first several links - including wikipedia - and the link is easy to find. sadly 'reddit pirate bay' is easy to find TPB link from but 'lemmy pirate bay' doesn't have TPB link without more searching (and even more sad, the first result isn't dbzer0 but a community on the ml instance)

And Kagi just lists it as the first result when searching for "tpb". Hope they're not jumping on the train any time soon

I need to pirate their service somehow (Kagi)
