@ctt I’ve been using qwant but for technical info I’m finding it is deeply inadequate.

SearchXNG - a local instance on my own server at home. It's like Google when Google was good.

Because Waterfox changed to Qwant I almost tried it but it is not available outside of Europe so I still use NoAI DDG

@ctt I've been using StartPage lately.

Mostly Qwant right now since it's the default on Waterfox, and Marginalia now and then since it mostly doesn't pick up AI sites and also pretty good for recipes of all things.

Thinking about switching Qwant back to 1.org, briefly Waterfox's previous default, since it seemed more responsive.

@thibaultmol Thnak you for the #Uruky updates. I have been eyeing it from a distance, but have not put it through its paces yet.
