Came here to mention kagi.
Very happy user here. The no-spam results make it so much more useful as a tool.
Also, "block this site from myresults forever" gives so much more agency to the user than anything Google has release in years. Googles "we know better" just reads as a big middle finger to me.
- tartoran 5y agoWow, they have that? That’s what I always wanted from Google and they never delivered. Im sure they had reasons. I really don’t think they want to empower their users, they are even hostile to search users and content creators, amp comes to mind and am glad it dissapeared already. Meanwhile I’be been using duckduck but i’ll give kagi a go.
- notreallyserio 5y agoWorse, Google used to allow you to block sites but removed the feature a long while back: https://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2013/03/google-discontinues-blocked-sites.html https://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2013/03/google-discontinue... .
- lordnacho 5y agoWhat happens when you ask it how many Ukrainian generals have died? Does it insist on giving you pages and pages about Russian generals, like Google? I was looking for this and it really annoys me how it thinks it knows what I want.
- berkut 5y agoNo, Kagi (unlike Google and DDG) will just stop providing results, it won't make up others with very tenuous links to your search terms like the others do.
- black_puppydog 5y agoJust tried that. I did have to put "ukrainian generals" into quotes (which makes sense, that's how it's supposed to work) but then it just showed me 5 results total, all of which contained exactly that phrase.
