A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't trust Fuck (lol typo, it was an accident, f and d are really close!) DuckDuckGo and stopped using it since the "relevant" ads from Microsoft: https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/company/ads-by-microsoft-on-duckduckgo-private-search/ I personally don't trust them.
Rather use an open source search engine like SearxNG . If you don't want host your own search engine, then use a third-party hosted one: https://searx.space/ and probably switch from time to time. Sometimes the search results are slower or not as good, but that is a price I pay.
FckFckGo. I see what you did there.
+1 for the SearxNG. That project deserves wide spread attention as far as I am concerned.
Exactly this. I read the article in the post and thought it actually sounds like a nice service, but after getting this ad when searching "depression" on DDG last year, I don't think I'll ever trust them again lol.
