Im noticing its harder and harder to find things on google. Searching for a companies quarterly profits, cost of medical care for all per capita, and othet economic details are all getting more and more buried in google. Just asking how other contries do their social programs results in us based opionion articles…like wtf are we even doing.

I understand scrolling and indexing sites is an enormous undertaking. Is there currently a federated open source search engine? If not is their a potential to create one?

Is there a trustworthy private option?

      Great product, but why did they pick such a terrible domain? This is hard to remember. Search engines built their empires off of easily memorized names, which is an excellent model to follow.

      Update: Oh, I see, it’s all based on trom.tf. That’s quite the range of services… seems way too ambitious to be sustainable, though, especially the YouTube competitor…
