Empowering Choice: Firefox Partners with Qwant for a Better Web

SpikesOtherDog, 1 month ago

Seems to provide similar results to what I was looking at for work today.

It doesn’t seem to group similar results from one site (Spiceworks, Reddit, Microsoft, stack overflow.

Also, it begs to disable ublock. I’d prefer now to search through sometimes sketchy information without an ad blocker.

Interesting. I’ve been testing Qwant since new year and have been decidedly underwhelmed by its results.

Hopefully with a Mozilla partnership, their results can get better. I’ve had decent results so far. Honestly, nothing much to complain about except that image search could be better and I can’t get local results like Google or Bing.

I may be harsh. The reason I quit using DuckDuckGo was they started dropping unrelated hits into my search results based on my IP. This was with regions toggled off so I suspect it was Bing fuckery?

Never heard of it, but I’m all for it, assuming it can do the job even remotely well.
