I visited Meta's metaverse on the day it was supposed to shut down. I ended up in a horribly designed car park with no cars, for a restaurant that can sell no food (www.prospectmagazine.co.uk)

For those who are fed up by Google's shitty searches, try Qwant!

Kagi is also good, but it's paid.

I tried Kagi for a month. Several times I got "we couldn't find what you were looking for" and the limit of 300 searches a month, even if I'm not going to hit that I FELT limited. I wanted to like it but it's not for me.

That sucks. I feel like if it can't find what you're looking for it shouldn't count it. Have you tried Qwant?

Not yet, this is the first I've heard of it

Qwant is nice, but it keeps blocking my VPN and locks me out if I happen to use a non-European exit node ("We're not offering Qwant in your region"). And I'm not pulling down my mask for a fucking search engine.

If you're willing to put up with Duckduckgo but hate AI search, there's https://noai.duckduckgo.com/
