I am kinda fed up off trying all these privacy focused search engines which provide lesser quality service. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
- Duckduckgo: bad results when you search something that piracy related
- Searx: I’m not geeky enough to host mine own searx so I just jump from one instance to another and the uptimes have been bad.
- Startpage: Idk why it’s down most of the time
- Ecosia: Not very private, but I just tried it for the sake of it. It’s bad when it comes to the results.
Honestly I feel Brave search is the best when it comes to results. But the sketchy practices kept me away from it. Kagi is paid so I haven’t tried it.
What have you been using?
Are you sharing your IP address with other people? CGNAT or university network or something?
Usb tethering to one pc. They block Mr saying I make hundreds of searches yet it’s my first of the morning. I gave up an moved to noai duck.
My internet connection is unfortunately just 5G mobile. Could be the problem.
