It turns out that DuckDuckGo is essentially a Bing frontend. Not only that, but there was also an instance where they hid Microsoft trackers in their browser. 💀
Startpage, on the other hand, is literally pulling all its search results from Google, and it's owned by an advertising company. 💀
Neither of them has its own index.
You know who does? Brave Search, or at least they're actively building one. I believe this is the solution we need: new search indexes instead of relying on Big Tech.
So, Brave Search is now the new web search engine on NostrNet.work , it's good enough for most of the people imo.
