Is there any good search engines? I mean I’ve tried searching recently for a solution I referenced 3 months ago and it’s disappeared from Google and Bing.
Shit, even looking up repair information for a household appliance if can’t find the model before the newest and it all points to a sale page for the newest version.
Mozilla recently announced some kind of partnership with Qwant. Hadn’t heard of it before, and I was highly skeptical (I’m a very cynical person). I tried it out and honestly I think it gives me on-average better results than Google and Bing does. Since it doesn’t track you it doesn’t personalise the results at all, and as far as I can tell it doesn’t have any ads, though I do use an adblocker so don’t quote me on that. It’s also very snappy. Bing often has long loading times for me, which was incredibly frustrating.

Maybe AkJeeves!?
I’ve been using DuckDuckGo for a few years now, and I never went back to Google. Maybe give it a try !
I use duck duck go but sometimes I just have to use google.
Use same search terms etc and can’t get what I want.
You should try DDG’s “bangs” then. They are shortcuts you can type to narrow your search or use another search engine from DDG’s interface.
!gm Singapore will search for Singapore directly in Google Maps
!w Singapore will search for the word in Wikipedia
!g will search in Google, etc.
Ohh I love that, I always have to resort to google maps to search specific things now I will try that.
Thanks so much
