Mojeek also displays significantly more individual entries in its search results than Google or Bing

Ah, yeah, that's from a blogger called Jack Yan who writes a lot on how many results you can actually get out of results 1-10 from n. What he's saying there, which is correct on checking, is that we will always display 1,000 results when we have them, whereas Google and Bing tend to either stop when you get somewhere in the 200/300s, or just repeat results.

Thanks a lot, I've raised the Kdenlive query. When it comes to searching for stuff with "yt-dlp" you mean there's normally another phrase or words in the query? Do you have an example; understand the problem but just trying to raise it with as much of a solid example as possible 🙏

Got any examples of searches you could do with seeing improvement on? A big part of our process is collecting these (as well as identifying issues in crawling off the back of them)

plz do not sue us

this comparison

the table you've cited is very out of date when it comes to us and other inclusions

being backed or debated at least by UK politicians

We came up in Hansard yonks ago 2011, mentioned by one MP

they do have individualized answers as well

I don't quite follow but if you mean results are personalised can I ask where you got that information? One of our main things is that we don't affect results based upon much more about you than country-level boosts

thanks a lot for mentioning us; you can send us in searches which could be better via the submit feedback button on results pages, if you'd like :D

noone expected this

Choices do this very thing, you click a button and the search in the bar goes to that site, if you have this enabled in the search bar. If not they are present at the bottom of the results.

We are in the process of open sourcing the library of choices so they are user-submitted.

our Search Choices might be of use here, different implementation but similar: https://blog.mojeek.com/2022/02/search-choices-enable-freedom-to-seek.html
