@ctt Kagi is the only one I've been able to use that actually works anymore, but you ave to pay for it.

[longspeak@bardicperspiration.club]

@ctt At work, duckduckgo. But I voted Kagi because that's way I use at home.

@osma @ctt

I'm using Qwant too.
It is temporarily unavailable fairly often for me. Do you see that as well?

[nen@mementomori.social]

@carlos @osma @ctt I do

[urlyman@mastodon.social]

@skylark13 thanks, I already do that on desktop but cannot on iOS 15.x.

And the cookie for dismissing Search Assist on regular DDG frequently expires

@ctt grep

[carlos@social.perceptiveconstructs.com]

@nen @osma @ctt

Yeah, it's enough to require a backup, which is DDG in my case.

[inya@mastodon.social]

@ctt Qwant

[musevg@23.social]

@ctt
Qwant seems to be a bit better than DDG for me. I'm switching between both.

[jtinmi@fouroclockfarms.club]

@ctt Startpage

[karen5lund@mastodon.social]

@ctt Duck Duck Go on the tablet, which I use most. Ecosia on the laptop, but it's based on Bing so it tends to repeat results beyond the second screen.

[lianna@micro.webgarden.click]

@ctt I switched to #Marginalia years ago & never looked back.
