Can anyone vouch for this? Is it open source? What is it’s privacy policy

Looks good! I’ll add it to the list. Google voice and google pay are by far the hardest to replace

Thanks. It’s updated now

Im sorry I was in a rush. I just wanted the community’s opinion for the mega thread if recommendations just launched

Should I make my own thread then?

Only reason for only office over libreoffice?

It does, but why Ubuntu?

lazy typist.

Startpage is owned by an ad agency

What instance would you recommend?

Crikey, thats not good

did librewolf change it from ddg???

Out of all of the three, I would say startpage is the cleanest. DDG has had a fair few controversies https://techrights.org/o/2020/07/02/ddg-privacy-abuser-in-disguise/ . So I think they are off the list atm, I may consider brave search but I’m not sure.

what do you main?

I do like DDG, but it feels like its getting more bloated, furthermore I would prefer a EU based service rather than an american one. sorry but this might put you off ddg https://techrights.org/o/2020/07/02/ddg-privacy-abuser-in-disguise/

how to find a good searxng instance, as all the ones i have found are rubbish (self hosting isnt an option.)

I thought self hosting a searxng instance was like really bad due to you being the only user on it?
