MODERATORS
 

SEO has made it incredibly hard to find answers without getting spammed by news and blog sites. Places like ask Lemmy help democratize answers through upvotes and downvotes so the quality is higher.

Do you know of any hidden gems for search engines or Q&A sites that contain highly relevant answers without much noise?

Site:somesite.com queries can help.

I started using Kagi a while back. It’s a paid search engine but is pretty solid

Kagi looks interesting, i was hoping someone would move into the market to try to make a real search engine again

That is wild! I can’t believe they made us have to pay for information now.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

they always did, with google you paid with your privacy and attention to ads. in the pre-google days you paid your ISP and/or aol

But now we have to pay all 3 ways lol. I love the idea though. I’ve already signed up!

Read their privacy policy, you’re paying two ways, same as it ever was. Kagi doesn’t have ads, doesn’t log searches, doesn’t sell data, and on its privacy policy page it lists out every cookie it uses, what’s stored in it, and what it’s used for, you can literally check your browser against it.
