What are the highest quality search engines?
(lemmy.world)
It is becoming near impossible to find relevant information from search engines. Duckduckgo, SearXNG, Bing, Google, and so many more mainstream engines have a significantly high noise to signal ratio, and it is getting worse.
Here are a collection of the best search engines I know, please add more to the list.
- Forum Search Engine: https://crowdview.ai/
- Non-commercial Search: https://search.marginalia.nu/
- Libre Meta Search Engine: https://librey.devol.it/
- Golden Age Search Engine: https://www.wiby.org/
- Yandex: https://yandex.com/
If no more high quality search engines exist, would it be possible to host your own?
EDIT: Some new discoveries. The addon uBlacklist and filters can block super SEO sites from appearing in search.
oooh, wiby got a .org? nice.
I don't know about self-hosted search yet, but I think that's one place where federation might actually be a feature and not overhead.
Wiby is great! I love using it to discover sites. It's very similar to spirit of search engines from the early internet. Though it's not a general search engine it has its specialized uses so I thought I'd mention it
