What do you use now for all the various things? I cut google out for most things but still use their search from time to time (and of course have to use google docs but that's because the people I'm collaborating with are on google)
- calamari4065 3y agoKagi. Startpage is a good wrapper for Google if you care about privacy. (Or it was, I haven't checked in many years) DDG is worse than google, IMO. Bing works, I guess, but I trust Microsoft almost as much as I trust google. At this point I've given up on Google. If I can't find it in kagi after a bit of effort, I'll either work around it or ask a person I know in the given field. God, the internet sucks so much now. I miss the early 2000s :(
- hedora 3y agoI’ve found ddg is much better than google, but switched to kagi, which is better still. For queries that fail on kagi, I check ddg and google, but it never helps. Kagi’s FastGPT works well on queries where the search engines fail, but is worse at search on average.
- calamari4065 3y agoDDG has been much more aggressive about replacing my query with whatever their algorithm decides I meant. They support no advanced query operators, not even double quotes. A search engine that ignores my query and shows me something else is not super valuable to me
