#andisearch — Public Fediverse posts

@rogerc2738, I don't use Google search since years, I have #Andisearch as main search by default and #Startpage mostly for image search. Sometimes also #Mojeek and several specific site searches.
IMHO the most reliable options.

“But the very act of asking AI for help is a privacy nightmare. The AI I use knows all my software preferences. What’s the right answer here?”

IMO, the answer depends on the #AI you use. I, for example, use #MistralAI (I know it's not the best for #Privacy, but that's it). I can't #selfHost it, but I don't introduce #sensitive info at least. Also, I use #AndiSearch's AI and #BraveSearch's. Sometimes, very rarely, when nothing else works, I use #MicrosoftCopilot (for as little as possible).

“I use it mostly for image searches where Andi isn't so good for.”

I used #DuckDuckGo_Search for that.
TBH, #AndiSearch usually seems a little better at #image_search than #BraveSearch (I am using #AndiSearch these days and comparing it with #BraveSearch to decide on one of them). What I don't like at #AndiSearch is that it's slower than #BraveSearch, and that it doesn't display at least an animation to show that images are loading…

@pjol, I'm happy with #Andisearch as main search and mainly #Startpage as second one. I don't use DDG since years.
