a great piece and the related paper is also a cracking read: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=998565 (linked in the piece also)

You can send us in results via the submit feedback button or contact page when they’re not-so good, if you’d like to help

harm google

what is the problem?

“hello i am u/NotBillGates and I agree with this message”

indeed so, thanks for flagging this I’ll get it raised so we can see what’s going on there

noone expected this

Search Engine Optimization Google Optimization

hello, we’re quoted in the piece, set your parameters to look only since the change/recently i.e.

Bing - Restricted to a week here and there is nothing
Mojeek - We are not crawling due to the block, avoiding adding results without content

As most are just using Bing’s results (DDG, Qwant, Ecosia) you should see similar.

issa me 😍

working on it! If you have any searches not working for you then please send them in to us; it’s one the main ways in which we identify issues and improve Mojeek for everyone.

people interested in alternative search tend to be in spaces that aren’t your GAFAM big tech networks, we’ve been on masto since 2018 also

not to come off as overly dismissive of people elsewhere, but you also find that the quality of discourse and people’s willingness to think about things are both considerably more elevated

Hai qualche esempio in cui non forniamo molti risultati italiani? Vorremmo indagare su questo aspetto.

This is correct, we are independent and have been since all the way back in 2004, 8bn-page index and growing 😀

this is correct 😀

spend a lot of time lurking; hard not to have a look for your own name 😀

yep, since 2004

Thanks a lot for sharing such a detailed rundown of what you find Mojeek to be useful for. I’ve shared this with the wider team.

This being said, if you have things that you’d like to wing our way in terms of improvements, or feedback on individual results, our inbox is always open (aloe at mojeek dot com) and there’s a submit feedback button on results pages. Mojeek thrives and grows off of feedback, the good and the bad 🙏

are you able to let us know what you use Mojeek for? Just interested in where we slot in

coming up to 20 years of no tracking, 18 of having the first privacy policy to say it: https://web.archive.org/web/20060318104627/http://www.mojeek.com/privacy.html

hopefully a good consensus 😅 at least seen very little of people saying bad
