google search results are still kind of useful especially for non-english language queries, anyone knows a good alternative?
searxng also doesn’t really seem to work these days…

Ecosia also has an LLM which make little sense with their mission IMO
That’s fair enough (unfortunately, this is the case for most search engines aside from SearXNG instances I think)! Thankfully they do let you disable it, which is nice. I mostly like that they are quite transparent about how they operate! The planting trees thing is a nice bonus, but they certainly aren’t saints to the environment, no search engine is
Chat gpt says the search results are served by Bing and Google. You’re not escaping Google, just the AI.
Thus the “working towards an independent European search index” part of the comment you ignored while talking with your autocomplete bot.
Did we all forget that Google used to give give an answer at the top of the page before Ai?
No I saw it but because the question would’ve been answered by Google anyways before the gemini thing I just used chatgpt to ask it who services Ecosia like T-Mobile servicing Mint. If they took away Ai, we’d still have the answer box that Google would’ve given and then we’d still have to double check our sources.
Bro, stop. Get some help. At least check the sources it used…
Well I did double check it by simply googling my query that I asked chatgpt, and what do you know even Ecosia says it on their site
