Presearch - a search engine for "We The People". Google and DuckDuckGo are, in opinion of increasingly many, getting more similar in their practices.Here's to a true alternative!Presearch is a decentralized search engine that provides search choice, wide results, privacy and even rewards to those who wish towards freedom...Indeed decentralized & powered by blockchain technology!==> https://presearch.org#Presearch #deleteGoogle #search #engine #blockchain #decentralized #DuckDuckGo

@Linux Reading the documentation, I have the impression that the gateway part is centralized and that only the storage and computation is decentralized. Moreover it doesn't seem possible to run a node in a personal network or without the approval of PreSearch (need of a node registration code).

@Linux Even though the project is advertised as "open source" on their (?) Github https://github.com/presearchofficial , the source code for the presearch nodes does not seem to be available. Only a docker image is proposed for installation, and it contains a binary.
