That’s the problem, really. They all have pros and cons.

Kagi is American, so they are out for me. So is DuckDuckGo.

I don’t care if startpage uses the Google index, since Google isn’t profiting from my data or from ads.

Their servers are in the EU, and the balance between privacy and usable results is good enough.

I see it like using a third-party front end for YouTube. All of the benefits with none of the risks or private data theft.

Alternative?

Startpage.com

Better than qwant in my opinion.

Was using the Voyager app. But now I use the Voyager PWA version through the Hermit app.

Maybe just like Facebook Market, simply ignore it? /s

YSK that Premium pays considerably less to creators than any other form of monetization.

So, if you want to support your favorite creator, literally send them a dollar.

One dollar is more than what that creator will ever make from a single viewer on YouTube.
