It seems that many people here are not aware of how much Mozilla depends on Google, so switching to them is a small consolation. Maybe it’s time to support the development of new engines like Servo and Ladybird more. Servo even recently released an Android version (currently not very usable, but I downloaded it just to show support).
Thank you for the explanation, it makes sense, destroy them while they are small.
I don’t follow too much, so I don’t know what E/E/E/ is, but it would be interesting if Meta is afraid of the fediverse.
It’s a shame, I hope it will succeed. Do you think Meta’s move is related and intentional?
These are a SearXNG instance, I think they’re aware of those facts there. You can set it up to not search or search on specific pages, you can also have multiple profiles which is useful when searching for different things. It also combines multiple web search engines… I haven’t dived into the configuration that much because what’s most important to me is that it doesn’t show ads, but I assume it’s easier to install the extension, although you don’t set this up every day.
Why not change your search engine and set up a SearX instance? You can find all instances here: https://searx.space. For example, I have set it up like this: https://search.inetol.net/search?q=%s&category_general=1&language=en&time_range=&safesearch=0&theme=simple, and it works wonders. Results are still mostly from Google, or you can configure it to be whatever you want.
If you read his title, he is actually looking for an online calculator. Supposedly, these offline ones are not up to date in mathematics.
Why Fennec? I use Mull and both have warnings that they are not fully open-source. It seems to me that only Librewolf is good, too bad it’s not available for Android.
Of course, I also use LibreWolf, Mull… but we expose ourselves to security risks this way (as is currently happening with Firefox and Mull), and besides that, you have to trust projects more and more whose code is not reviewed as thoroughly.
