Browsing the web I came across this (meta) search engine. From the first glance, it seems promising and giving quite a good results to my searches. Definitely better than Google, Bing or DDG, which tend to be full of SEO/ads/AI bullshit these days. Does anyone use it?

It somehow implies it’s open source and indeed there is github https://github.com/PresearchOfficial too, but I can’t find any link from the presearch.com itself to it. It’s just… IDK, weird?

    Presearch make proxy call to google, they add the wall and their own tracking and their own ads. Stay away.

    In fact, stay away any project that have web3 or crypto

      That crypto part must be new, it definitely wasn’t there some time ago. Anyway, glad I’m not the only one smelling something fishy in this…
