MODERATORS
Use Searx with "default [all]" language option. Use Yandex with a VPN. This combo is superior to anything else. Why? Because Yandex is Russian, and unlike western search engines, they ignore DMCA law result removal requests.
Yandex results are almost better than the old 2007 Google, with reverse image search and video search being the king as well.
I used Qwant extensively, until they became another business. DDG was made by a CEO that was in data selling business before, and censors for west government agenda, like Russia bad or Israel good. Mojeek is okay but... Yandex has no competition. Startpage is proxied Google, okay but also dicey ownership.
Digdeeper has a decent comparison of search engines on his blog.
We'll try and get that okay up to a good and then a great as time goes by! There's a submit feedback button on results pages if you'd like to be a part of that.
Yours is one of the only names that still carries respect for me. Indexing is extremely hard when the competition is Google, Bing and Yandex, but people need the result quality. Everything else will be fine with time and effort.
