Happiness is knowing that we are constantly improving Midori to offer you the best, because users are our reason for being. Our engine is not Gecko, our engine is yours.
it occured to me that if the web is full of junk (like ai-generated seo content etc), are there search engines where you can create and share with others your own (potentially big) sets of domains to include in the search?

@mntmn Perhaps this project can fulfill this need: #Stract is an #opensource search engine where the user has the ability to see exactly what is going on and customize almost everything about their search results. It's a search engine made for hackers and tinkerers just like ourselves...
