(((Google))) is pretty much useless now as it's just about 95% (((commercialized))) and points you to shill sites now. What are some good alternate search engines? Can you make your own?
Alternate search engines?

i use Bing, as a token of gratitude, for having used microsoft windows without paying when i was younger
Hudson Cook
DuckDuckGo
Benjamin Stewart
I love DuckDuckGoy! Finally an open source* engine that respects my privacy™
*only partially
Evan Thomas
Fuck. Is Bing the way to go then?
Christopher Kelly
Bing is the best image and video search that I've found, G00gle is best for reverse image search, and for everything else it's DDG
Dominic Miller
Simple. Don't type "I want to kill all jews and put them in an oven" or "where can I buy PCP" and you should be ok on pretty much every search.

Do you know how many people search for questionable porn or conspiracy theories every day on the internet? The NSA is usually looking for terrorists and people spilling classified info not some NEET jacking off in his basement.
Andrew Murphy
>The NSA is usually looking
Yeah exactly why DDG should be avoided.
Owen Parker
Good thing you used the only (((search engine))) that doesn't track you. You should be safe.
Adrian Foster
with GDPR, you want to use a European search engine

>not using POST url requests
you deserve the FBI at your door tbqh desu
also i still use ddg because they're supported by numerous privacy centered organizations. they could be spyware but the only things against them are two things that happened years ago and the five eyes meme that literally doesn't matter if you use shit like POST requests and VPNs like you should do regardless

alphabet soup priorities
> leaking of classified documents and espionage
> domestic terrorism, not the meme SPLC groups either
> cheese pizza
> threats against the president or other public officials
> drug and arms trade
Jow Forumstards and their shitty neet opinions are probably really low on their concerns.

if you ask google about guns it will only tell you about bump stocks
like, its actually completely unusable as a search engine if you're trying to find any information about firearms ostensibly because anyone googling about firearms needs to be told why they shouldn't have bought one
Hunter Thomas
Startpage
Easton Roberts
These or searx

the nsa has backdoors in cell phone chipsets and most prefab circuits that make up consumer devices not just entry points but active programs running simultaneously to the degree that they likely have a database of photographs every single time your camera pointed at your exposed dick and have cross referenced that penis with a child porn database
if you think that's a massive waste of government time and resources, remember that it has never and will never catch anyone and the reason it exists is to convince people the federal government is working to catch pedophiles and rapists instead of being an organization full of them.
you think you are playing to an advantage by making a king's gambit against a fucking panopticon
Eli Collins
The first 4 results are info on buying guns.
5th is wikipedia
6th and 7th are again places to buy guns.
So from the first 7 results, 6 are about buying guns and the one that is now is the wikipedia entry for "guns".

Sorted from best to worst
Searx
>a privacy oriented open source search engine
>searx.me has a shitty uptime or search delivery so you should use searx.xyz instead
>excellent for privacy, much better than Qwant/DDG
Qwant
>good overall

DuckDuckGo
>basically like Qwant but hosted in (((America))) so your privacy isn't guaranteed
Logan Phillips
That engine is just as bad as (((google))).
Anthony Martinez
And you have my thanks.

ANYTHING that isn't being shilled by some (((asshole))). Google is almost 100% commercial garbage now.
Sebastian Morales
startpage, searx.xyz , qwant lite, searchencrypt, findx and swisscows. Yandex is great for images, but it's botnet.
Brody Brooks
I have tried both Bing and DuckDuckGo, but none of them comes close to Google's results.
Jace Mitchell
Use YaCy, it's a libre P2P decentralised search engine. Users wilingfully contribute to the crawler by feeding it URLs.
Josiah Cruz
just run your own instance of Algolia at home with a crawler script. voila, your own private search engine
Matthew Hall
NO search engine is as good as Google for searches in most cases.
If you're looking for pirated content or controversial topics though, Google is shit.
If you look for an old documentary by the BBC or something, you can't find it on Google, but you'll find it right away on DDG.
Same for information about the holocaust being fake. Google manipulates data on controversial topics.
But anyway, for random and banal searches, Google still is the best.
If you can handle not having the "best", Bing or DDG are fine.
I like DDG best.

No board on Jow Forums bans you for saying the word nigger, nigger.
