Temos que criar um buscador igual era o Google lá pra 2012.
Partiu?

O Google de 2024 é o lixo supremo do capitalismo.

@santiago @capitaobviodev Buscadores diversos, há. O problema é o custo de sair visitando cada página por aí e indexando, por isso há um certo oligopólio. Outro alternativo de destaque é Brave Search.

Contudo, por enquanto, para ter os melhores resultados e ainda não ficar escravo de software privativo de liberdade, que infelizmente ainda é o caso de DDG e creio que também o do Brave, o contorno é usar um metabuscador como ou . Uma exemplar instância é mantida por @cadusilva 👏

After a long hiatus, Gugal 0.8.2 is finally out, with a fix for an issue where searx instances without HTTPS support wouldn't work.

It also brings a number of minor improvements. Finally, Gugal is now available in Italian and Spanish.

The F-Droid version is expected to be updated soon, and the direct version is now available: https://gitlab.com/narektor/gugal/-/releases/0.8.2-n

@narek why not and others open source free search engines?!

This guy made a tool that beeps every time a website sends data about you to Google. The beeps blur into a continuous buzz: https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/tracker-beeper/

I use Privacy Badger (https://privacybadger.org/, blocks trackers), uBlock Origin (https://ublockorigin.com/, adblocker), Firefox, and the SearXNG search engine (https://searxng.ca/ or find instances at https://searx.space/), but it's annoying I have to.

A video of navigating various popular news sites (Daily Mail, nu.nl, telegraaf.nl) in Chrome. A terminal is visible in the background, running a program that beeps ever time the site reports back to Google.

I'm really disappointed with DuckDuckGo lately. It has been enshittified by adding the new AI feature and search quality has been deteriorated, so I don't trust them anymore. I'm thinking of switching to searXNG, but I'm not interested in self-hosting. So looking for trustworthy public instance which has strict no-log policy, any suggestions?

Well drank the cool aid. Can we just not plug hallucinating AI into every single thing? I've been meaning to get going on my infra. I guess it's time now.

After nearly 6 weeks, I've decided to end my extended trial of Kagi search, it gives little value over DuckDuckGo and is a waste of money.

@kev if you have a personal server, you might be interested in selfhosting searxng.
You can aggregate searchs from different engines, filter out domains, redirect domains (e.g. reddit.com -> old.reddit.com), etc.

One step further from the and because I think I will litteraly rip my head off if I use Bing / Google / etm only to be faced with AI spoiled results.

As with the others service I privacy is the default.

Maybe try the searxng matrix support chat, I think there might be a few developers around that could point you in right direction:

matrix.to/#/:matrix.org

They also have a Mirc support channel is that is more your cup of tea.

Given the whole current situation with Kagi and Brave and my disappointment at the CEO's "keep politics out of tech" tech bro BS, I fear I might have to switch search engines again.

What I want is basically Google's index without its tracking, and being able to completely remove whole domains from the results (killer feature of Kagi for me). Happy to pay.

I've tried DDG in the past and was not happy with the quality. Maybe searxng? But no filtering there.

Ideas?

@foosel@chaos.social avatar

To be able to properly evaluate as an alternative to , I've just set up an instance in my homelab.

Next Kagi payment cycle is coming up next week, until then I'll hopefully know if this works or not. If anything can test how well a search engine works for me, it's a work week.

The experience with my self-hosted meta search engine is so far not perfect, but good enough.

I've just cancelled my Pro subscription and will delete the account once that runs out on Sunday.

I wanted to love Kagi, loved its (stated) goals, but if the project leader goes all "keep politics out of tech" as reaction to criticism about collaborating with Brave, then it's apparently just one more tech-bro project out there, and I don't need to support that with my money.
