The decision to cache results is interesting. (When I searched “Mullvad Leta,” this critique of it popped up.) As far as I can tell, though, this is a really promising looking search engine.

Unlike DuckDuckGo and so many other engines, you don’t have to rely on Bing’s results (they usually work for me, but I’ve heard complaints. And getting pointed at the same news aggregators can be annoying.)

Unlike Brave, the results arrive quickly. Presumably, it also won’t hit me with captchas like Brave has in the past.

Unlike Kagi, I don’t have to worry about signing in with an email address and unknowingly funding Brave, Yandex, or whoever they contracted with. (Vladimir Prelovac hid the source data out of what appears to be spite.)

Unlike Google… Do I even need to elaborate? It’s Mullvad. They have a reputation for being the best, not the worst.

Here’s to hoping competitors follow suit.
