    I mean that already exists. It’s called Kagi. But Google retains like 99% of the market because no one gives a shit and can’t be bothered to adjust their default settings.

      Is Kagi really that much different? I used their free trial for a while and the results seemed similar to what I’m used to on Duck Duck Go, so I just went back to that. Maybe I should try it again.

        The default experience depends on what you’re searching for, usually traditional search engines fall apart pretty quickly when it comes to anything related to a possible purchase, or more technical/esoteric info.

        Tbf, one of Kagi’s killer features is its ability to up/down rank websites, which means you also need to spend some time customising it to your tastes. No more Pinterest, quora, medium, etc

        I mean regardless of how different it is, it’s exactly what you described in intention.
