It’s impressive how duckduckgo manages to be so much better than bing despite being a frontend for bing

    Wow reading through these comments makes me a little sad. Most people still don’t know jack about search engines or how they differ under the hood, or eve just how to add them into your browser search bar. Looks like all the effort I put into that that simple search engine guide was in vain.

      Well that was a spectacular read in your link, keep calling attention to it, 'cause it’s gonna be a constant drip-drip-drip of people finding out. I didn’t know, but starting today, I’m gonna experiment with SearXNG as my primary search engine, see how that goes!

      Thanks for making such an interesting guide! I’ll read through this and hopefully learn more about search engines and what would work the best for me.
