I'd pay 10€/month for a google alternative. It should rank resources based on relevancy, not mixed up with any advertising or business-political reasons. And no filter bubble please (opt-out?).
- tima101 11y agoHah, that's a surprising answer. Thanks for sharing. Why not filter bubble? It does not do a good job guessing personalized results?
- anonyfox 11y agoWhen you want to investigate about something new to you, you have to trust what a search engine gives you. When for whatever reason google wants to influence people, a little modification of search results for specific topics can make a big difference and push public opinion in any direction. I prefer to get balanced views from all sights, and not only voices that agree with whatever i'm already thinking, pushing me further down a mental rabbit hole.
- tima101 11y agoI see. Would you mind giving an example?
- anonyfox 11y agoNope, I won't, since it's basically impossible to prove it from the outside. But the raw possibility is enough. But I think that finding truly relevant results without clutter and people gaming the system is much harder than personalizing results, where one can cheat and find "close enough" results based on historical data and so on
- tima101 11y agoI agree that former is harder. Thanks for the insight.
