Why aren't you using a search engine like DuckDuckGo, StartPage, Ixquick, or Searx? If you are, why is yours best?
>>58600507
But I am using startpage Anon... Dunno which is the best but it works
>>58600507
> Non-botnet
>DuckDuckGo
they rely on Russian yandex
think!
I use Startpage. Works well, only complaint is you need JavaScript enabled for full functionality.
>>58600507
I do have duck duck go set as my default browser.
but sometimes it really sucks ass and I have to use Google, like when I want to translate something, and duck duck go just gives me results for translation programs
I use Google because fuck you, autists
Also bing for porn
>>58600507
DDG is not accurate enough... sadly

>duck duck go just gives me results for translation programs
I know we're living in $CURRENT_YEAR and all, but that's how the internet is supposed to work - distributed services
If you want a one-stop shop for everything you might as well bring back internet portals like AOL and Yahoo.
I'm trying to get out of the mindset that Google needs to offer me everything. For translating I'd use dict.cc or dict.leo.org
>>58600706
you can add !g before your search to get results from google encrypted

>not using Google for porn
The fuck people,I'm doing this for fucking years already,holy shet.
>>58600789
or better yet, !sp. it's google botnet results.
>>58600762
Bring back altavista and askjeeves, they're elite.
Used startpage, it's good. Currently trying out searx, seems kinda slow.
>>58600507
Startpage is very nice.
>>58600802
It is a well known fact that Bing is superior for porn
>>58601587
There is no excuse to not be using this thing. Results as good as Google and it just werks(tm).
>>58600507
I'm using DuckDuckGo.
>why is yours best?
It isn't. Don't go there, you fucking idiot. We don't need any more fragmentation and rivalry. Any search engine that is privacy-oriented is good enough, cucking Google/Yahoo/Bing is the priority here.

Because that sure worked out for linux, right? Remember what board you're on. People care about the most autistic details.
>>58600507
I use Google because I'm not a paranoid retard. It's really great and convenient.
Why do you care?
>>58602304
Literally the same results, potentially without the botnet. What is there to lose?
>>58600706
You can use "!gt textToTranslate" to translate given text with Google Translate
>>58602330
The wording of OP bothered me. "Why aren't you X?", " botnet", "why is yours the best?". You can phrase that better without looking like a " My favorite brand is the best! " idiot. But I will bite.
In my mind those services are as "botnet" as the services they portray to protect you from. They are just proxies and you are as vulnerable with them so I don't bother and just use Google.
>>58602330
They're not the same results though
>>58600724
Everyone deserves a (you)
I don't like duck duck go because they refused to acknowledge that they filter nsfw image results. Instead claiming it was a bug multiple times over a year.
>>58600507
>there are anons on /g/ right now who aren't using searx
what are you doing with your lives?
>>58602622
/thread
>>58600724
Thanks for the redpill.
>>58600507
Those all are botnet, YaCy is the only choice.
>>58602622
this should have been the first post, I use SearX and haven't used anything else since.
>>58600724
Are you surprised that a site you're on knows your IP? Are you this retarded?

>searx
shows less resits than google.
Example: search for the word book
Honorable mentions go to Qwant and Unbubble.
Because I'm not a tryhard who tries to look like some infosec master when people are looking at what search engine i'm using.
>>58600706
!bangs
>>58600507
Is ecosia a botnet ?
Because is based on bing
