Hooked on a search engine? What a f****** nut job. You want to hook me on a search engine? How about give me the results I ask for without ads, without manipulation, without spam, then don’t take that information of what I searched for and apply it to me until the end of days and sell it to everyone and their brother.
And honestly I can’t see anyone in the company watching that presentation and not coming up with the same overall feelings.
LOL.
My selfhosted searxng is close.
Willing to pay cash? Check out kagi.
I’m a cheapskate but I’m getting closer every month.
So, what are you gonna do? Switch search engines? Most of the population don’t even think there’s a choice.
Currently self-hosting Searx-ng. Goes out through a VPN. It’s a meta search, so I my highest rankings are results that come back from multiple vendors. Pretty much eliminates sponsored results.
I haven’t gotten around to putting it into my reverse proxy, so when I am out I just use duck duck go. Their results aren’t as good, but they work.
