• Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

Which search engine would you recommend?
Google Scholar it's really good at finding researches and surveys but you have to use the right keywords.
The problem is that i find normal Google a bit limited and restricted, especially if you search about suicide.
Maybe it's just me, if not what alternatives are there?

I personally use DuckDuckGo as my browser of choice for both my phone and laptop.

I wouldn't say the difference is massive, but there is a slight improvement if you really pin down some key words in your search.

Metacrawler is a "metasearch" engine that searches other search engines and consolidates the results.

DuckDuckGo is something I trust entirely. And Is recommended by a good amount of privacy obsessed people alongside Startpage

In regards to search engines and algorithms and doing research keep in mind some use each other's. So ddg would use bing's and several others.
