@art I really like #Startpage because it serves #Google results (which are IMHO the best of all) but in a #privacy-friendly way.

@art I use https://metager.org/ and fall back to Google when that does not suffice.

@art StartPage (which is Google inside) or Searx. Going to install my own instance of that soon.

@art I would be curious what "other" search engines people use. I have been playing with some lesser-known searches lately but haven't found results I can depend on yet.

@art Startpage and Metager. The latter provides very good results.

@art With every x searches done in #Ecosia, a new tree is planted.

@stunder @art Mostly Metager. Sometimes it fails to find what I'm looking for, then I try Bing and Google and they fail also, but with horrible usability. Then I shrug and go back to Metager.

@kirjis@polyglot.city @stunder@mastodon.sdf.org @art@mastodon.sdf.org I generally use a meta-search engine (searx) and it's mostly okay.

@pixelcode I'm still trying to find an alternative to DDG. And startpage is not one of them because of this : https://restoreprivacy.com/startpage-system1-privacy-one-group/I wrote something about DDG here : https://lazybear.io/posts/goodbye-ddg/

@hyde I know of that but the thing is: If you suspect Startpage of being privacy-invasive even when there is no actual hint to that, then you shouldn't have a reason to trust any search engine that doesn't have an open index, meaning that the acquirement doesn't really change much IMO – regardless of whether you trusted Startpage before or not.

@art#Ecosia. If I am not satisfied with the results, I also search via google. However, this hasn't happened for a long time. So I use ecosia exclusively. - Not only because of the 🌳 🌳 🌳 💚
