Whoa, mama!
The alternative search engine that does what’s right, we believe that privacy is a human right and that a true alternative must have its own index 👉 https://www.mojeek.com/
Whoa, mama!
Choices do this very thing, you click a button and the search in the bar goes to that site, if you have this enabled in the search bar. If not they are present at the bottom of the results.
We are in the process of open sourcing the library of choices so they are user-submitted.
our Search Choices might be of use here, different implementation but similar: https://blog.mojeek.com/2022/02/search-choices-enable-freedom-to-seek.html
Came here cos of the mention of Mojeek; will be coming back for this long quality list of things I can put on my phone 👏👏👏
can’t emphasise too much that this piece is a very necessary read for anyone who wants to know about search; not just because it says good things about us, but because of the depth of research which has been put in here. Most times you encounter an article about indexes they are just taking whatever a (meta)search engine says about themselves, not even looking at privacy policies for “relationships with microsoft” etc. or doing any comparative work.
we’re working on it 😉 slow and steady and all that; we also fixed a bug with recrawl recently that should be improving things
you can also send us in queries where we’re not perfect, or let us know elsewhere, and we’re keen on fixing them
Sometimes it’s a hard one to remember 😅
this is correct 😀
8bn pages crawled and indexed in house by us, but if you want something a bit more fleshed-out: https://www.mojeek.com/about/why-mojeek
thanks a lot in advance, and fedi is where it’s at ! 💯
sorry to hear that; if you are using us any point in the future and want to flag this, we have a “submit feedback” button on pages, this is a really useful thing to do for us, as it helps us to identify results which are not so good :D
no hidden catches no
howdy 👋
mojeek and lynx together, love this combo!
ah no bother at all, not everyone is gonna be across every single kind of company and they are functionally very similar!
good write up, we’re Mojeek Limited, not Mojeek LLC; LLC as a formation in the UK is called a “Private Limited Company” (PLC) which is contracted to .ltd or limited.
Thanks for mentioning us nonetheless! You can help out with that journey, if you want, by chucking some searches (either new ones or old ones you remember being not so great) into the Evaluation Page and voting.
let us know if you find anything which could be better also, we’re always looking for ways to improve
