      I mean it’s interesting that it has surpassed Kilmister as the top result.

        Neat

        I wonder how Google (and the search engines that depend on Google) decide which person/entity to feature in the snippet. At what point would Lemmy the software replace Lemmy the person?

        For example, “Swift” brings up the financial organization, while “Taylor” brings up Taylor Swift

        Duckduck is just a wrapper for bing (and gives microsoft trackers a free pass)

        Startpage is a similar thing that uses google. Considering how hated bing is believe Duck only got more popular because of privacy marketing.

        The safest alternative is running your own searxng client, it still relies on bing and google but at least you can verify that its actually stopping all trackers.
