I live in a country which uses a language I don’t speak but Google defaults to regional results in spite of my language being set to English. All other engines give me really poor results (not that Google was giving good ones, the image search has really gone to shit since they started populating it with AI stuff).
I finally caved and shelled out for a sub for Kagi. It’s just way more accurate when searching. I was bouncing around about five different ones and finally settled on it.
I’ve been meaning to check out this one, though. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35611923
