What search engine does Jow Forums use ?
Ubuntu
QuackQuackGoo
lynx
my own searx using bing, startpage and yandex
I use Duck Duck Go, but 95% of the time use !g, !yt, or !w because those actually give me what I'm searching for.
Startpage
Qwant
Searx
Yandex then I'd consider DDG
google.com.au
Google, because DDG has shitty, inaccurate results
goggle.ocm
e621
Qwant
I downloaded the internet in 1999 (because of Y2K) and haven't needed to search anything online since then.

this but i only use !g about 5% of the time. google should be very concerned imo, the opportunity cost of private searches is getting smaller.
use startpage
startpage
Has anyone tried YaCy? I'm interested in such decentralized search engines since I'm paranoic about getting censored results without me knowing about it.
Any ungoogled websites with youtube videos?
Altervista, what else?
invidio.us, but I'v heard that information is still send to Google regardless of the way you access YT videos
I dislike duckduckgo because autocomplete repulses me in a deep, insect-like way and I can't explain why.
Startpage for searching shit up, Yandex for image.
Startpage
Use youtube-dl and RSS feed
based ecofag
I used ddg.gg for the bangs for ages, but now I just use ddg's own search. Google seems to just keep getting shittier. I'm not going to use a M$ or Ruskie botnet.
Startpage and sometimes DDG
startpage/searx/ddg
yandex for images
DDG and unironically Bing.
Mostly so when someone says something that you would reply why not google that, I always pipe up with 'you could Bing it'. Awkward times.
lovely times
I think privacy minded folks are fucking themselves over with using those "privacy" browsers, search engines and whatnot.
>all happen to be made by Jews
startpage or google sometimes yandex because their image search s absolutely great
Yandex. Russian botnet stonk.
>google "white people"
>niggers everywhere
DDG
Don't care about "privacy" search engines, that's not where the problem in privacy is.
But google's results are actually terrible, and their website design is shit.
I think they have a .onion too, which is nice for people who want that, I guess.
Although I did initially switch because muh private I then realised it was actually good and continued when I realised that the search engine was not a problem in privacy.
based
startpage
ddg sells your data, stop using it faggots
Qwant or searx
Because images of white people don't have to specify white people anywhere in the description, so it's not there to search for. It's just the default.
Test
proof?
there's literally no reason to use ddg when startpage exists
We recommend that you don't use DuckDuckGo if you seek a search engine that values your privacy. There's no confirmed proof that DuckDuckGo is violating your privacy, but there are some very suspicious things, however, that make certain other search engines far superior in that regard.
1. Gabriel Weinberg, the founder of DuckDuckGo, used to run the Names Database.[1] This was a website that aimed to connect people who had lost contact by gathering lots and lots of e-mail addresses. Getting access could be done by either paying money, or submitting lots of e-mail addresses of other people. Since the service revolved around gathering personal information, it is very suspicious for Gabriel Weinberg to start a business that is privacy-oriented. [2]
2. DuckDuckGo used to set a tracking cookie, even though they claimed they didn't. This was done by a third party they cooperate with, which means that it wasn't necessarily intentional, but if it's unintentional, it shows a worrying lack of care.[3]
3. DuckDuckGo is based in the US. This makes it really easy for the NSA to compromise it. If it were based in the EU, for example, the NSA wouldn't have the legal power to force them to log everything without telling anyone. This wouldn't guarantee privacy, but it would make it a lot more plausible. Instead, they're based in the US, which means that the NSA can do whatever they want with them. There are secure search engines that are not based in the US.[3]
>There's no confirmed proof that DuckDuckGo is violating your privacy
first, please site your references.
second, what do you recommend?
>There's no confirmed proof that DuckDuckGo is respecting your privacy.
Anyone non ironically using DDG: Congratz on using a bigger botnet than Google (yes it's true read up on Weinbergs history)
If you are outside of the EU privacy should be the last thing you should care about anyway. It's non existent for you.
>Be me
>Be 2014
>Take a screenshot of a corner of a photo and post it to google images
>I fucking guesses the entire image and presents it to me in every possible file size
>fuck yeah
>Change Keyboard to Russian Keyboard
>Type out "Help my keyboard is wrong." using the still English keys even though Russian text is appearing in the search
>Google shows me how to change my language back to normal
>Search for documentation regarding some bullshit I need.
>Actually fucking get the documentation I ask for along with much much more.
>Be Me
>Be 2019
>Take a screenshot of the a complete subject I want to find sauce on.
>Google: This is a fish
>Google: This is an animated cartoon
>Google: This is a landscape
No Google, it's fucking porn. I want my fucking sauce for my fucking porn.
>Not even trying Russian keyboard thing
>Search for documentation
>Get nothing but dumbshit blogs
>Google images redirect to pinterest
>One night while tired briefly mention the possibility of wanting to research a little bit into fashion since it might actually not be retarded and maybe I can present myself more professionally
>Next day YouTube recommends me a whole section on fashion tutorials.
>Google unironically refuses to give me what I ask when I ask it but will deliberately give me shit I say in passing
I just fucking use DuckDuckGo now and I switch to google only for Google Maps.
Bing is good for image searching so long as it's no longer porn.
I fucking hate the internet now.
this. Iam so pissed about this.
DeeMindy sucks hard.
>we
Who the fuck is we?
This is Jow Forums. This isn't some dumb fucking hive-mind bullshit.
YOU don't recommend DuckDuckGo
I recommend it because unlike google, it at least fucking works.
Privacy is important but there's a law of diminishing returns so unless you've got a better alternative you can fuck right off.
Yandex for reverse image search, Qwant for everything ese.
Used to use DDG, started using Bing. Works pretty well, although you often need to use a + to get it to stop being "helpful". The main downside versus Google is that Bing's advanced search is somewhat lacking. The only time I use Google these days is when I'm searching for obscure Japanese erotica to download and can't find it with Bing, which is less often these days.
DDG's bang feature seems intriguing, but I've just never been able to make a habit of using it.
Bing, it works.
>This is Jow Forums. This isn't some dumb fucking hive-mind bullshit.
These two sentences conflict.
I found out that startpage>duck
startpage supports all(?) search operators from google
Invidious has a setting to proxy videos which was made explicitly for this reason. Sadly it doesn't work ootb with ytdl since you have to manually feed ytdl the cookie which isn't really hard but still.
Read Weinbergs history.
Also it is a fucking US based company. They are obliged to backdoor everything and release all data possible under the Patriot Act since the sever isn't open source.
If you care about privacy either use Startpage or stop acting.
I never got this ape logic.
You want proof from him that your service is not private. Are you mentally retarded? So you trust a for profit American company just because of some ad slogan? It is your job to verify whether their claim is true. hint even if it wasn't for Gabriel being a data broking German Jew ddg being US based is forced to log and forward everything to authorities.
use wiby.me
well then what the fuck do i use?
I think he's saying blend into the sea of botnet? Making your self so (((private))) only makes you standout.
For the record, I mostly disagree.
Internet Explorer
I don't want to use google for ideological reasons
Been using qwant for a long time now
it's run by kikes user
