If you miss the way Google used to be, may I suggest ecosia.org - I am loving the heck out of it.

Wenn mehr Benutzer #Ecosia statt #Google als #Suchmaschine verwenden würde, hätten wir wohl bald kein Problem mehr bzgl. mangelnder Bäume.
„Ecosia steht 2023 auf Platz 8 der weltweit meistgenutzten Suchmaschinen, mit einem Marktanteil von 0,15 %. Bis Februar 2024 wurden mehr als 200 Millionen Bäume in mehr als 35 Ländern gepflanzt“
@pteryx According to the #Wired article [1], companies that have signed long-term deals with Microsoft will maintain access for the time being: "the largest customers of the #Bing APIs will retain their access after August 11, while smaller developers that were less profitable for Microsoft to support are being cut off".
#DuckDuckGo is cited as one of the companies who will retain access. #Ecosia plans to switch to #OWI.
#Mojeek and #Brave have their own indexes.

Ich bin mir nicht sicher ob die Werbung vom #VPN Anbieter die richtige Wahl war.
Auch fehlt mir da einiges an #opensource wie #openstreetmap und co
Zudem setzt #ecosia auf #Bing und #google auf.
Nachtrag:
Natürlich ist das Bestreben toll!
I've been using #DuckDuckGo for nine years, but today I looked at European alternatives. #Qwant has almost identical results and is probably based on #Bing, as is DDG. #Ecosia has different results and does not match either #Google or Bing. Both are acceptable as search engines.
But I miss the extra features, especially the conversions. Qwant has none and Ecosia only has currencies. I miss Bang!s too.

In pure AI-produced search results, the human element of discretion is removed in favour of other entities’ priorities – priorities that are similarly opaque. Microsoft’s decision is at best misanthropic, and at worst a deliberate attempt to prevent its competitors disseminating information that has not been subject to its own bias.
Does any Ecosia user know what I can do to stop content blockers from deleting the search results? See picture
I’m using 1Blocker with the Ads, Privacy and Annoyances block lists
@geerlingguy Try #Ecosia and help plant some trees
Last call! (reposting with more tags)
Do you want to work with me? Do you want to work in #Go (#golang), creating performant services? Do you want to work with some of the best engineers I know?
#Ecosia is #hiring #backend #developer (mid level, but we'll also take advanced juniors, shhhh). Team is mostly remote, write me any questions you want.

I'm an open book, I will answer anything honestly. I can also refer you, I don't gain any compensation from it (I think maybe they donate to an organisation in my name? unsure if they still do that), but maybe it lets you skip the line a bit.
Please boost so more people can see the job offering! Market is tough right now.
Wenn ich direkt in der YouTube App
#Igor #levit #Filmpreis eingebe bekomme ich alles aber nicht das.

Bei der Suche mit der #Ecosia suche erhalte ich das Ergebnis.
#Frage könnt ihr das bitte auch mal versuchen.
Ist das bei euch auch so?
Für mich grenzt das sonst an bewusste #zensur
Ich wollte das nochmal weitersenden. Dabei ist mir das aufgefallen.
Sonst sind meist nur kürzere Versionen im Netz unterwegs.
Manchmal fühlt sich der Kampf für die (eigene) #informationelleSelbstbestimmung - den #Datenschutz - aussichtslos an,
ich möchte daher daran erinnern, dass auch kleine Schritte etwas bewirken können:
* Nutzt einen Ad- und Tracking-Blocker (#uBlockOrigin)
* Ändert die Standardsuchmaschine(auch wenn ihr diese nicht zu 100% nutzt) (#DuckDuckGo #Ecosia #Qwant #SwissCows)
* Wechselt den #Browser(#FireFox #Brave #LibreWolf)

Ecosia: Was steckt wirklich hinter dem Google-Konkurrenten? (Ecosia: What's really behind Google's competitor?)
Is Ecosia fake? What's behind it?
The article (in German) is quite long and contains a great deal of information about Ecosia, including its founder, history, development, controversies, privacy, the people who plant the trees, how Ecosia verifies this, financial reports, users experiences etc.
