Fantastic work! Hope the Qwant/Ecosia coop creates a powerful search index.
We really need this. Both qwant and ecosia still use bing under the hood and they are sadly not as good as Google. We should invest in developing an EU search engine
Which European search engine is best for privacy?
@farcaster Qwant.
I sure hope it’s not or we’re in trouble : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwant#Controversies
So what’s the alternative you suggest then? We’re being fucked on all fronts, privacy doesn’t exist by this point.
I don’t think there’s an ideal alternative, I personnally use Startpage right now cause Qwant was removed from the latest Ironfox update.
I just wanted to point out Qwant had its fair share of privacy issues.
In case you understand German, there is this discussion: https://feddit.org/post/8948253.
Great start! For browser I can recommend Ecosia (Germany; tried it only on mobile) and Vivaldi (Norway).
As they’re both based on chromium, a Google controlled browser, I‘d recommend any Firefox based browser (waterfox, librewolf) instead.
and Waterfox, Fennec or IronFox for mobile
Amazing ❤️
For anyone reading, any idea what the music catalogue on Qobuz is compared to Apple/YouTube/Spotify music? I checked out the website and it looks like Qobuz is kinda expensive (I pay 9.99 euros a month for YouTube Premium + YouTube Music so it’s really hard to get rid of it and find a better alternative)
I don’t use it for streaming, only to buy digital albums, but on multiple occasions Qobuz was cheaper than 7digital or Bandcamp.
All around I’d say it’s the same price (around 10€ per album).
Sorry guys but Soundcloud? Isn’t it based in Berlin? I am a long time user of SoundCloud and I like it
Most music streaming services charge about 10 bucks per month. Maybe Qobuz offers rebates every few months.
I heard is pretty close to 1 to 1. Can’t find the source tho.
If we actually get a good working, privacy focused search engine that is not primary ads, it would be really great
Looking forward to it!
