Has anyone here used Qwant? I've seen it mentioned a handful of times but I've not tried it myself.
-
I had used it for a while in the past. The results were surprisingly good. I have moved to other search engines to experiment since then, but I have nothing bad to say about my time with Qwant.
-
I’ve been experimenting with other search engines recently so might give it a go.
-
Which search engines do you use now?
-
Brave Search currently, but I am still in the experimenting and search engine-hopping phase. Henceforth, Brave Search is not my final search engine, either.
-
Interesting. Which other ones have you tried? I'd be interesting in hearing what you thought of all of them!
-
-
I was trying Kagi but I'm put off it now that they're partnering with Brendan Eich. I don't think I'd use Brave search, for the same reason.
-
@dan I see, what's the problam with Brendan Eich, is he the former Firefox CEO?
-
He was only CEO for 11 days and was essentially forced out due to homophobic comments and funding proposals for banning gay marriage. He also spread misinformation about COVID-19. There's a thread in Kagi's forum about it here: https://kagifeedback.org/d/2808-reconsider-your-partnership-with-brave/16 and a Mastodon post here: https://chaos.social/@scy/111704636274463611

I've used it a long time now. I find it to have much more relevant results than DDG did last time I tried.
-
That's because it gives a whole lot more data to Microsoft than DDG does.

I would love to but it's still unavailable in my country :/
