Lol, they absolutely do not. Their search results have turned to shit.

    What's a better alternative? Have tried all major ones except paid ones and I always return to Google. Maybe for basic stuff Duck Duck Go / Bing is fine, but once you start searching for local / non-English stuff, results were underwhelming.

    I've been using kagi for a few months (6 according to my bank). It is paid. It is great. It's so good I've switched my wife to it since Google was giving her a lot of garbage (she's a non techie) and she says "it feels like Google used to be. The answers are what I was looking for. I forgot I was using Kagi"

    I want the answer to be a federated system, like YaCy. Which I tried to set up, and its results make AltaVista look good. Maybe good enough for a corporate intranet, but not the internet at large.
