That doesn't mean invalidate their comment. The title's claim is false.

Right there under the search bar on my setup at least.

That's cool, thanks.

Nice! Link for the lazy: https://marginalia-search.com/

isnt it made by the same guy from Kagi?

But are the results better?

Except it still relies on closed source indexes to do anything useful, and they are actively trying to block scrapers.

Which is why I commented in affirmation to be more wholesome and encourage more people to post about what new, to them, things they discover.

56, 66, 115, 155, 156, 230, and 237

I was self hosting searxng for a long time then after one of the updates I stopped getting results. A friend of mine told me about degoog so I switched and so far I like it. It has a lot of plugins and addons. I basically have it looking or feeling like Google used to. I was also able to incorporate my ollama instance for LLM summaries if I add a question mark in my searches.

Thought i remembered something problematic

they also pay brave for search results iirc

For only 300 searches, that's 10 searches a day. I do probably 50 to 100 searches per day.

So, it's really $10 a month.

I might pay $5 a month for unlimited but I'm not sure about that. Because, you know they'll raise the price if they get successful enough. And, then it's just a constant march to more enshittification.

Yeah, and here 5 bucks is more or less the ~110% of the incomes of most here and in a lot of parts of the world. Also, even for those that have not so bad wages, it's still sort of a 5% to 10% of their incomes.

For me, i.e., it's much more because I'm unemployed (because of all of the AI crysis, I'm music producer and in my area it hurts so much).

You don't notice it, but you live in a privilege bubble and speak bullshit from your high horse while most of us are trying to find out how to survive with less than 100 USD a month while the basic food basket is more than 500 USD.

Yea

At this point, I don't see why that is any worse than using the services of any US-based Big Tech companies. They have the same kind of anti-privacy business model, their local political regimes have both gone off the rails, and law enforcement and intelligence agencies can legally or extra-judicially snoop through collected data without the user ever knowing.

Some of the services provided by Yandex are, quality-wise, decent enough. I personally tend to find their translation service to be as good or better, as compared to similar services, such as Google Translate or DeepL, so it's usually my API of choice through Mohzi.

The Russia thing is that they pay Yandex to use their results in addition to the other engines they use.
