It’s impressive how duckduckgo manages to be so much better than bing despite being a frontend for bing
Okay, totally off topic…what is it with this annoying trend of censoring a company/name with an asterisk when it’s a subject of ire? It just bugs me - and not in a way that focuses my anger to Microsoft.
With stuff like Tesla and Twitter, it can keep away the weird nerds who search those terms in hopes of white-knight-sealioning a conversation into oblivion. I think it just became part of the lexicon.
I like the classic Usenet “Micro$oft.” Producers of Microshaft Wind-blows.
Don’t forget Microshit’s renowned Orifice software suite!

I only ever use Michaelsoft Binbows.
It’s ironic, except for when we’re talking about the Fr*nch. It’s self aware humor that you’re being ridiculous. The tone it’s supposed to convey in situations like thisis that you’re being hyperbolically obtuse.
Yeah, that Franch dipping sauce in Breaking Bad was crazy!
Honestly, it’s better than: fck, blly and s*icide
Those are generally used for bypassing filters on TikTok and Instagram
But like, come on man, no matter how much you censor it I know the word and I get the message. Because that’s why you wrote it, you want me to read and understand it
And here we are, not on TikTok or Instagram, and still seeing it
And to add insult to injury…
People are going to see this, so here’s the answer.
Logitech’s web UI is crap. See that tiny, unlabled triangle on the list on the left?
Click it and pick your OS version.
Then you get the download.
…huh. TIL.
The last time I had to download the unifying software it was more obvious than that.
How is Softonic still allowed to advertise it’s literally Malware
Google: 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑💰💰💰💰💰
Softonic be like every app you want we have it, even the non exist ones. But once you installed our apps you already have made a pact with the devil
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!
Borderline?
There’s still DuckDuckGo, or Kagi if you are rich.
still looks better than the average Google search
I would give startpage.com a shot i find it works even better than duckduckgo
Thanks for the tip! I use startpage already, it’s pretty good. From what I understand, it uses Google’s search index under the hood.
There’s also Brave search which (claims to be) privacy friendly and (claims to) have their own independent search index, so you could give that a try as well. I wouldn’t say it’s better that startpage or google tho
I’ve been using Brave search for a while as a daily driver. It’s usually pretty decent, but I fall back to google when looking for commercial stuff like local stores and products.
Damn I’d love to use it but it does not have my country as an option to select region so pretty much useless to me sadly. Stuck to DDG abd google/bing it seems.
I just use Google with uBlock Origin to get rid of adverts
How does Microsoft’s compare to M*crosoft’s?
Not sure, but I am a fan of Mpcrosoft’s search
At least what you are looking for, is on the first page. With Google you get half a page of ads not relevant to your search, and two pages of SEO garbage, before you get to a relevant search.
tbf it seems to be a common issue with search engines atm. brave also has the stupid ai response topmost, and startpage without adblock pushes in so many sponsored results that you need to scroll to get to anything else
If you are interested maybe look at this post I made comparing search engines
Mainstream search engines (google and bing) are completely useless. Alternatives ftw.
Isn’t this the same as Google?
