I am kinda fed up off trying all these privacy focused search engines which provide lesser quality service. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
- Duckduckgo: bad results when you search something that piracy related
- Searx: I’m not geeky enough to host mine own searx so I just jump from one instance to another and the uptimes have been bad.
- Startpage: Idk why it’s down most of the time
- Ecosia: Not very private, but I just tried it for the sake of it. It’s bad when it comes to the results.
Honestly I feel Brave search is the best when it comes to results. But the sketchy practices kept me away from it. Kagi is paid so I haven’t tried it.
What have you been using?


Who decides these days and how does one keep up with these? I’m off of mainstream media and now missed Father’s day. I just don’t bother with these anymore. Sure I’d like to celebrate a day for my dad but these occur on most random days that I barely keep with these, ever so since I have quit the normal social media.
