Ask HN: What search engine do you use?

1 points by zingplex 10y ago ↗ HN

A few years ago, I made a concerted effort to move off of Google products. At the moment, the last remaining products are Google Search and Android. I've tried most of the alternatives, and used both Bing and Duck Duck Go, however remained unsatisfied by the quality of their results. Have they improved much in the past few years? Is there a good search engine I am missing? Should I just stay with Google?

90% of my queries are well served by DuckDuckGo. The rest I try with startpage.com. If this does not work too than Google. For me it's worth it since I do not sell most of my info to Google and show them that they are not doing it right in my opinion.

I wish YaCy would work good enough...
