[email protected] is a community inspired by [email protected] and [email protected].

YDMGU focuses on text that, when read a certain way, produces a positive message (such as "You Matter, Don't Give Up."), but reading it a different way produces the opposite message (such as "You Don't Matter, Give Up.").

Q. This community is just a cheap knockoff!
A. No, it isn't. The other communities focus more on the layout, and less on the text; the posted content is supposed to be read in a certain direction, but visual cues lead most people to naturally read it in a different direction. The resultant message does not have to make sense. Meanwhile, YDMGU focuses more on the content: the two messages must be opposite in meaning to each other.

Q. Ah, so all YDMGU are either DDOI or NSSF, but not all DDOI or NSSF are YDMGU?
A. Not exactly. DDOI and NSSF are very strict with the layout, but less strict with the content. In those formats, the text must be able to be read horizontally and vertically. Meanwhile, a YDMGU is less strict with the layout: text can be read horizontally, vertically, or potentially even in another manner.

Mwmbl is a community-built, non-profit search engine that puts privacy and user control first. It offers a truly different search experience—one where the results are shaped not by corporate interests but by real people.

Key Features:

• Ad-Free & Privacy-Respecting: No ads, no tracking, and no commercial interests—just a search engine built with the users in mind.

• User-Curated Results: Instead of relying on algorithms, search results are refined and tuned by the community.

• Community-Driven Crawling: The engine relies on volunteer-run crawlers. Although the index currently holds around 500 million unique URLs, there's massive potential.

• Ambitious Growth Goals: mwmbl plans to reach 10 billion unique URLs by the end of 2025 and 100 billion by 2026, at which point it should be a true alternative to commercial search engines.

• Open-Source: The project is fully open-source, meaning you can contribute to the code and help resolve issues to push the project forward.

How to Get Involved:

Right now, the search quality is pretty rough, but that’s where you can make an impact:

• Contribute to the Index:

  • Install the Firefox Extension: Once installed, it crawls the web on your behalf.

  • Run the CLI Script: An even better option would be to use your spare computing power by running the command line crawler.

• Join the Community: The main community is on Matrix for non-development related discussions.

• Code Contributions: Check out the project on Codeberg. You can contribute code, report issues, or suggest new features to help make the search results better.

• Financial Contributions: Donate some money towards hosting costs and supporting volunteers.
