I've heard good things about kagi, but $10/mo is pretty steep

In the meantime i can recommend metager to you, much cheaper (i charged my account at creation with 10€, i've used 3,80€ currently after a few months of usage). You can configure how many tokens your search will use, if you want search suggestions for a fraction of a search and so on. i'm very happy with it and will stay with it, it's very cost efficient.

Edit: I forgot to mention that it is ad-free when paid, has dark mode, open sourced under the AGPL Licence, has blacklist and bangs support, and offers completely anonymous search requests by generating cryptographical tokens if you wish to.

Trust me, I thought the same, but its honestly almost life changing. Takes me right back to 2008 internet where I could find the shit I wanted. Very little seo and slop.

Kagi, mullvad, ublock origin with huge AI and ad blocklist waterfox (or Firefox) and private DNS are MUST HAVES to use the internet today.

Try the 5 dollar kagi first.

Hello, what do you mean when you say private dns?

[-] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 1 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Either mullvad DNS or nextdns.

Mullvad DNS is free for anyone to use. You can either change it within mullvad or in your network settings on your device or router. Pm me and I can help ya.

Basicakly results in less tracking and ads. Sometimes better network performance.

Lemming nerds correct if I'm wrong !
