What search engine does /g/ use? Been using pic related recently,
Images are sometimes not shown due to bandwidth/network limitations. Refreshing the page usually helps.

What search engine does /g/ use? Been using pic related recently, can't say I prefer it over google search even though I wanted to like it.

Google because it's still vastly superior to any alternative.

Bing is better for porn. Based Microsoft.

Duckduckgo seems to be kind of hit and miss, sometimes it shows exactly what you want and at other times it seems like im using bing

Try g! "search term" in DDG, without the ".

They've got some pretty useful "Bangs". (That's what they call them)
>>
>>51682830
>using DDG for anything other than the !bangs

lol

Disconnect search

duckduckgo is pretty decent

This. I've been using Bing exclusively for porn for a while now, didn't know others did too.
>>
I search for jailbait webcams on duck duck go

Everything else Google.

ITT morons who treat DDG like a normal search engine instead of the search engine to rule them all

Educate yourself

I already have this in my browser, why would I need to pass a query to a search engine instead?
>>
>>51682830
I use it for porn.

If you have an auto-updated list of all !bangs locally in your browser, good on you.
>>
>>51685000
Say I want to search /g/'s catalog, it would be trivial to manually add that, however with a bang that isn't possible. They only have one for /b/ and the archives; I would have to ask them and wait for them to implement it first.

what's wrong with duckduckgo? returns goods results for almost all my basics searchs and have indexed everything I need, most known websites, forums, it includes some goods functions as time, temp, calc and it have a way cleaner interface and premade dark themes... let's be honest what else do you need? I only use google for doxing or for some exceptional tricky researchs that ddg cant handle.
>>
>>51682830
You can try startpage. If you change the colorscheme to the plain white one it's decent to look at.
However it's fucking slow. Sometimes it just won't load or it gives an error. Gave up after 6 months using it exclusively
