I'm using Startpage since about 1.5 months ago. A tad slower but I like it and it gives me good results.
- cJ0th 9y agoI also use startpage 99% of the time. It relies (entirely) on google, though.
- ljcn 9y agoThis is true. For a sister search engine that doesn't use Google or Yahoo see https://ixquick.eu/ https://ixquick.eu/ Source: https://support.startpage.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/103/0/what-is-the-difference-between-startpage-and-ixquick https://support.startpage.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Artic...
- cJ0th 9y agoThat's quite interesting. I didn't know that ixquick.com != ixquick.eu
- biggerbistro 9y agoIsn't this OK though for most use-cases? Startpage will effectively act as a proxy for your searches, preventing Google from associating your searches with your identity. It still feeds them though, which I suppose is a problem.
- absove 9y agoI've been using Startpage for a couple of years now. I'm happy with the search results.
- lousken 9y agoI agree, I've been using it for 6months now. But it took me some time not to get any kind of additional results like weather info.
