Sounds like we need a nationalized search engine company then?
- browningstreet 9mo agoI wouldn't trust a nationalized search engine company. That said, there are projects like Common Crawl and in Europe, Ecosia + Qwant. I personally would like to see a search enginge PaaS and a music streaming library PaaS that would let others hook up and pay direct usage fees.
- shadowgovt 9mo agoAn interoperable search index access standard might work. We've done something similar for peering and the backbone of the IP-layer interconnects themselves.
- direwolf20 9mo agoYou have to make it economically preferable, and there's No known solution to this. Large networks are still using their positions to bully smaller ones off the IP-layer internet backbone.
- NitpickLawyer 9mo ago> and in Europe, Ecosia I tried. It's just not good enough. Quick example: yesterday I set up a workstation with Ubuntu, wanting to try out wayland. One of the things I wanted was to run an app (w/ gui) from another (unprivileged) user under my own user. Ecosia gave me bad old stuff. Tried for a few minutes, nothing useful. Switched to google, one of the first results was about waypipe. Searched waypipe on ecosia. 1 and a half pages of old content. Glaringly, not one of those results was the ubuntu.manpages entry on waypipe. shrug
- g947o 9mo agoSo the entire search result comes from Truth Social and Grokipedia. No thanks
