duckduckgo seems to provide weird llm generated “summaries” instead of actual description recently though. I heard they come from Bing but not entirely sure.
yandex is pretty solid for finding media
Bing no, duckduckgo yes.
In my experience, Yandex has always been better for piracy than any other search engine.
Russian corps ain’t got no reason to protect “property rights” of some clown westoid corporate at their own expense
There is a benefit for US not controlling the entire world
Russia fucking sucks but this, at least, is true. (The West sucks too, don’t get me wrong. I ain’t going to Russia but i will use their search engine.)
As to pedons we should use tools available to us.
Fuck Russia but yeah I will use their tech tools to fuck domestic westpid corpos who are a lot more of threat to me than Russian regime or corpos.
Remember folks when you lay for media, you are funding your enemies. Largely
What is your use case, I 'm just simply interested.
My workflow for finding things, I know where I want to search it for, e.g. a torrent site or a specific forum or network, and search there. If I would search for something on a general search engine like those, even if it would give good results, I would have to weed out the fake and scam results. While if I search on an already reputable site or source I don’t have to deal with that.
movies, tv shows, things like that. I’m not American so search keeps suggesting things from my country and most of the time I only get “review/geek sites” when I search for something specific.
There are local trackers everywhere, try to get an invite to them. I’m Hungarian, we have several invite only trackers for dubbed movies and other local content. Even they are invite only, it’s really easy to get an invite as a lot of folks have account on them.
For that kind of content I would look for your local communities on reddit, fb or whatever social media is common in your country. Try to find out what others use, and try to get an invite there.
