I stopped using Google years ago, and I did not replace it with Bing either. Nor did I trust DuckDuckGo since it is in America.

I’ve been using #quant for a while now. Happy with it. -
@hacknorris @wikipedia I agree
Btw, I wonder what parody name (and metaphor) in a fantasy setting I could give to Wikipedia... I'm open to ideas!The Collective? The Swarm? The Hive?
"Let's ask the hive."
It should consist of many entities. Ants, fairies, bodiless hands, swifts, mushrooms, a castle full of weird people – could be anything.
And they should be constantly bickering among themselves while also being very thorough, helpful and intelligent – and super smug about it!

@simondev Nice. Thanks for the link. I had the classic DDG with AI turned off (+ublock origin and a AI blocklist), I'll check if this variant is better.

@davidrevoy uhm I guess it's the same. But it is useful if you are using a public computer and want an address that has all ai turned off by default

@scottytrees A sort of "Columbo, but it's an AI Parrot" type of series?
@davidrevoy @scottytrees Applying Sherlock Holmes methods, but they're actually *realistically* applied by the Avian Intelligence (no plot magic), and therefore always wrong

@davidrevoy Does the machine create the books? o: That's pretty rad! Or maybe they magically poof the books off the shelves. Even if the books themselves are trash.
It's time to reintroduce yourself to Dewey Decimal, my dear!
(Also I'm loving all the search engine recommendations in the comments, hehe.)

@davidrevoy honestly, the best long term solution I have for this lateral behavior amongst the companies is to move to a decentralized platform.
Yacy is still a thing.

@jordan @davidrevoy word of mouth will always be the best publicity. I also like feed agreggators like bubbles.town and powrss.com . But those are more for discovery than search/research.
@sunbeam_rider Thanks for the links!! Checking them out..
