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/

which languages are you searching in? It’s likely that they are as-of-yet unsupported. There are a lot of languages we crawl and index in which aren’t en/de/fr but non-neo-latin languages are not currently available.
That would be helpful, yes; there is a “submit feedback” button on results pages which allows you to send it directly to us if that works.
Mojeek never finds anything.
Got any examples we can look into?
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 👏👏👏
there’s a safe mode if it’s of use: nested in the settings gear menu but also on /preferences (to turn it on for all searches)
working on it! If you have any searches not working for you then please send them in to us; it’s one the main ways in which we identify issues and improve Mojeek for everyone.
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.
yes we are indeed a standalone, the sizes of bubbles are reflections of the number of index-usage relationships yep is attached to ahrefs: https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/03/yep-search-engine/ where I can speak to where results come from, I couldn’t tell you about their model
we’re working on it 😉 slow and steady and all that; we also fixed a bug with recrawl recently that should be improving things
Swisscows does use Bing, Startpage uses Bing and/or Google depending upon where you are, we are fully independent: https://www.searchenginemap.com/ is a visualisation that might be useful
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
We’ll try and get that okay up to a good and then a great as time goes by! There’s a submit feedback button on results pages if you’d like to be a part of that.
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
coming up to 20 years of no tracking, 18 of having the first privacy policy to say it: https://web.archive.org/web/20060318104627/http://www.mojeek.com/privacy.html
hopefully a good consensus 😅 at least seen very little of people saying bad
you can smash the “submit feedback” button on the page when you get a duff search and send it into us, it’s how we improve: https://blog.mojeek.com/2024/02/major-algorithm-update.html
no hidden catches no
for the moment it’s just not in the crawl; I will add +1 into the “add Japanese” column off the back of this interaction
