Try search.marginalia.nu (free) or kagi.com (paid).
Both prove that it is very much possible to come up with better rankings than Google do.
Googles problem very much seems to be that quote by Upton Sinclair that “It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”
search.marginalia.nu and kagi.com have nothing to gain by sending people to websites that result in ad impressions for Google so for them it is a whole lot easier to rank fairly.
Also without this incentive it turns out that the feature everyone asked Google for - personalized blocklists - wasn't as impossible as googlers have told us over the years.
- ericjmorey 2y agoI didn't know about Marginalia, thanks! I've been trying out https://www.mojeek.com/ https://www.mojeek.com/ recently. I mostly like it, but haven't made it my primary habit to use it first before duckduckgo. I'm avoiding kagi for various reasons.
