This is why we have preferred sources on you.com - and a special mode just for coding specific results: code.you.com, eg. https://code.you.com/search?q=onnxruntime+segfault those you would not necessarily find on .edu domai

We also have recent github issues as an app within you.com to solve for that. (you.com founder here)

Would love your thoughts on you.com. We're making steps towards opening it up through all the "search apps" and are trying to innovate and build features nobody has, like code snippets from stackoverflow or tutorials, summari

Hey. Great to hear. You can hide any of the apps (with tiles) through your preference menu. Eg. some folks dislike W3School -> top right menu - preferences -> thumbs down and it won't show up. Our idea here is to give users more

Hey there, It looks like it's missing that url you mentioned but, I see tons of results on how to use it, where to download it, the correct github page with details, reddit results describing how to use it, etc.? Seems quite useful to

Can you help me understand what you mean by it doesn't show up? It seems to be there like all over the place? In web, on the github app, in the reddit app results, etc. https://you.com/search?q=download%20youtube-dl

Would love your thoughts on some random queries based on what you said for you.com, eg. https://you.com/search?q=implement%20interior%20point%20meth... https://you.com/search?q=numpy+array+filter+elements+py

that's why we have a reddit app inside https://you.com - you can set your preference for it once and boom, you'll get results from reddit whenever relevant.

Would love your feedback on https://you.com - actually has most capabilities that G has and also has the same bangs as DDG.

Hi Ennea, Can you help me understand why you make this particular change in the config?

At https://you.com we believe in choice but not force it. It will just work out of the box, but as folks shop or get really into something like coding - we have heard from many users that they like or dislike certain sources or

We found similar issues at https://you.com a while back. We just had to be good for more query families. Now we have both the walmart locations in a map app, eg https://you.com/search?q=walmart and coding relate

That was a very thoughtful post. You bring up many reasons for why we started https://you.com - to have less junk, more control over one's sources, no ads, less engagement loops that you see on social media and Google, etc.

+1 to this. If you search for your name or IP address etc. they will save that query forever and there's no way you can delete this. When we founded https://you.com we read other search engines' TOS and decided to give

Yes, it's sort of a modal on mobile. Do you recommend a different behavior? You are right. The second result seems more relevant. We'll look into whether we messed up the # Thanks :)

Hi Ennea, Honest question since this is the first time I hear this issue. What's the use case the changing that setting in your config? From my limited understanding whatever beacon does can also be done in the backend it just makes it

At you.com we believe in user choice - private mode where we track nothing and personalized mode in an account where you can select your preferred sources like Reddit or Quora, StackOverflow, etc. For now private mode has no ads, but sadly,

They don't know yet about you.com? - No spam, no ads, you control the ranker with your source preferences, hardcore private mode that doesn't save anything nor uses your location (even DDG saves your queries and gives location-ba

Even as a small startup at you.com we pay our amazing engineers more than that (full pay package = salary plus equity). Of course, startup equity is hard to plan with since it's not public stock. These days, being "outside the hot

DDG says explicitly: "We also save searches" in their https://duckduckgo.com/privacy policy Some queries will always be "personally identifiable" such as your name, ssn, telephone number or an IP address
