Preferably one that doesn't censor search results. Like DuckDuckGo, apparently

This was particularly visible on far right subreddits where they began heavily recommending yandex. Because that makes sense. Swapping from a privacy-centric search engine to a literal Russian propaganda conveyor belt? Yeah, sure. No clue how many bit the bait.

Thanks for the context info. Saved me a search for it.

Censorship of any kind is bad because it sets a bad precedent. There's a reason why the ACLU defended the KKK's freedom of speech in 1978. If you can censor one, you can censor all.

While I am not far right and don't support Russia in this conflict, it's still very wrong to censor anything political.
