Which search engine is as good or comes close to Google?
I like brave as a browser but the search results are underwhelming.

I have heard good things about:

Iā€™ve used duck duck go for years. Supposed to basically search google for you, but blocks google tracking

chatGPT?

I personally donā€™t trust it, it hallucinantes way too oftenā€¦ Just like Gemini and Grokā€¦ In fact, Pilgrimsmaster is the only AI that I trust.

I didnā€™t know about startpage, itā€™s not bad at all. And duck duck go I had used in the past and like a lot.
Iā€™m gonna probably switch to one of them but they both have safe search, I was hoping they wouldnā€™tā€¦ I donā€™t want my searches sensored in any way and having to turn it off all the time is annoying.

Itā€™s off by default on Mojeek, itā€™s not great though

NGL, Iā€™m incredibly angry. Sadly, when you live in an collectivist society you can end up on the receiving end of a significant amount of aggression for deviating slightly from the norm.

Deep inside, Iā€™m a rebel. I donā€™t like showing this side of me, but I have a brain not a lain. I enjoy reading and studying different topics and have the capacity to master them, specialization is for insects after allā€¦ Unsurprisingly, I got yelled at for this not that long agoā€¦

Turns out that if you know a little too much about elevators, get trapped inside of one in a way that can be solved from inside the cab, wait for 10 minutes for someone to answer the intercom without any success, solve the problem, and tell the security guards and the neighbors that you know to avoid said elevator until it gets serviced, you can receive a bunch of screams and unenforceable illegal demands from the stata managerā€¦

This whole thing is pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of things, especially when Iā€™m going move somewhere else because of other problems with the building, but I still feel very angry.

Man, I hate being mistreated for using the lump of fatty tissue thatā€™s sitting between my ears to solve problems. Some people truly are a complete waste of carbon to the point were Iā€™m surprised that they have bipedal ambulation, and I need a hug.

better?

People who are conditioned to NOT think, tend to react to active thinking as a personal assault. Part of the conditioning, I suppose. Try not to be angry. Take a deep breath, and pity them. Pity the HELL out of them. They will never know, because they have chosen not to.

Smile, laugh and just say okay and nothing else. Let their blood boil.

Great minds often encounter violent opposition from mediocre souls

Needs to be an easily quoted saying.

Like you look at a buddy and say ā€œGreat Mindsā€, and instead of ā€œthink alikeā€ he responds ā€œMediocre Soulsā€.

If you really wanna crank 'em up, express your condolences on their short comings in a professional manner. ā€œI realize you canā€™t make the intuitive leap even in such an obvious manner, but I want you to know Iā€™m here for you no matter what.ā€

For maximum boil, pat them on the head.

I prefer the condescending route. Just smile and say, ā€œyour doing a great jobā€ and walk away.
