I knew that DDG de-indexed some Jow Forums tier sites, but encountering a non-political site that is censored was new to me. What else do they censor? Is there a list somewhere?
I knew that DDG de-indexed some Jow Forums tier sites...
does DDG use Bing's results by any chance?
partially, yes
that would explain it. I just tried to search that page on bing and ecosia (which uses bing's results) and both filtered the site even with safe search off. if ddg uses bing's results their filters will affect them too
try searching that with bing and ecosia and you'll see how even the results are displayed in the same order
Try YaCy search engine.
You have two options with YaCy
you can leach from it
or run part of their search engine
crawler on your computer as a running server
service.
It's a peer to peer search engine but the people who run it are total geniuses that are professors at some university or other. I run it as a server
but if you want to leech then go here
yacy.searchlab.eu
this is not a metasearch engine, this is a crawler/indexer/search-portal
SearX doesn't have this problem.
Is this actually usable? I tried it once and while it sounds really cool, I was completely unable to get any sort of meaningful results.
what the hell search engine am i looking at here
These are the results I got there
Local instance of:

Searx > Yandex > whatever u have to offer
thx
This is better
searx.jew
asciijew.jewhub.io
>metasearch
Yeah, I'm sure it will help when they all ban something.
Besides, a private instance defeats the whole privacy part, because it can be fingerprinted and profiled.
I guess YaCy is our only real option then, let's hope they get stuff indexed quick, surely p2p will make that happen
>Besides, a private instance defeats the whole privacy part, because it can be fingerprinted and profiled.
How is it fingerprinted, exactly?
asciimoo.github.io
Private instance at the very least removed a bunch if unnecessary headers and doesn't track you when you browse the results. I have an instance and share it among about 10 people so fingerprint is smudged so to speak.
Fingerprinting is not something you can avoid, you fundamentally leak some bits. You can make it less precise by blending with the crowd, yes, but I doubt 10 people with (probably) similar interests are enough.
Practically speaking, at least some of your results are possibly personalized to your SearX instance, and they are influenced by your previous searches, at least until its IP changes.
>Vague description with absolutely no explanation
Okay.
Also, dynamic IP on a portable machine, so that part is a non-issue for me.
>OP literally accuses ddg of censorship
>stop shilling this piece of trash
Nice virtue signalling Jow Forumstard
this may be a stupid question, but is it possible to set a local instance of searx as the default search engine, say, when you type into the chrome url bar?
i'd like to replace my default (currently startpage) with a local instance, so long as it supports this
Of course.
thanks user. installed searX and i'm loving it

>DDG de-indexed some Jow Forums tier sites
Are you referring to kiwifarms? Those guys just laugh at retards. I would not compare them with Jow Forums.
No, they do not share results. They're simply using the engine. I cannot remember the name but it's owned by Verizon.
>muh CENSURSHEEP
Go fuck yourself OP. Your precious website is just scoring low on their search engine, but it's being indexed and shown.
Maybe if you weren't such a little bitch you would've filed a bug report instead of spewing FUD in the Jow Forums.
ddg has turned to garbage since crapple bought them.
Apple didn't buy DDG.
Bump because OP is a faggot.
It doesn't score low you nigger, it's in top 10k worldwide and they intentionally ban it in the results. Any other site is shown by its name. Kys retard.
>b-but this is a bug
fuck off shill
You don't know how to search stuff man. I bet you're the kind of person that types "hotmail.com" in Google when they want to read their email.
>ban the results
>they appear anyway if you specifically look for it
How many braincells did you lose writing that?
So what is it then, FUD man?
Fuck off paid shill. This is one of two major sites on this topic (the saner one), and it doesn't show up in ddg (and bing, as noted by another user) unless you make a very specific query. This site is also under the constant legal pressure due to its nature. I bet this is just a BUG and COINCIDENCE, not a shadowban, now go neck yourself.
won't g**gle ban your IP at some point
While DDG has its own web crawler, it leverages results from Bing, Yandex, Yahoo! And other search engines. It could very well be that other search engines have lowered its score and thus disappeared from DDG as a result.
The fact is that you can find that website using the advanced search function and also it appears on Google. So you can shove all your conspiracy theories up your ass.
start page
ddg is bing
yahoo is bing
that's it
the site being on google has nothing to do with the thread you massive faggot
>While DDG has its own web crawler, it leverages results from Bing, Yandex, Yahoo! And other search engines. It could very well be that other search engines have lowered its score and thus disappeared from DDG as a result.
Nice, it really set the new standard of trust online for me
it's not censorship, it's a bug
that can't be it, Bing is the only one that seems to not show the results. They appear nomally on Google and they appear in DDG with an advanced search. It has to be a bug in DDG's scoring algorithm thing
>searx.jew
redirected me to sears what?
>While DDG has its own web crawler
So that crawler is useless because DDG doesn't use it? Or maybe it can't even index a top 10k site according to alexa? Or maybe DDG is useless crap itself because it's just a frontend to bing? It surely doesn't show the google or yandex result in its metasearch, both link to the site without a problem. Take your pick.
Everyone that disagrees with globohomo is a nazi.
Shouldn't you be on reddit?
>actually using Duck Duck Goy
No u
>Safe search: Moderate
It's the same with it off though
