Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

DuckDuckGo has a focus on privacy. They don’t track or sell your search data.

That’s kinda the point for a privacy focused search engine isnt it. How about?

  • StartPage
  • Qwant
  • Swisscows
  • Searx
  • Mojeek
  • Metager

I didnt check all their details but on premis there the same thing.

Those that i did test where all consistently better then duck. Except searchx but that depends on the host.

The only difference is DuckDuckGo has an estimated Net Worth of $1 billion and pulls in bills (get it, like a duck).
