   Google chrome, firefox, edge, ie, opera, are now tracking you.

   ddg is my favorite search engine and it has great restutes. It has a built in video player too! The only problem is that i have to use google in a blue moon to get the results it need. Duckside! Brave! Lunix!

• Show HN: OK-Robot: open, modular home robot framework for pick-and-drop anywhere

  Take a look at these pictures: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cluttered+old+persons+home&atb=v314-1&iax=images&ia=images I was thinking that people who live in an environment like this are most in need of a robot to help them. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

  Not to be snarky, but UPS fires are one of the leading causes of datacenter fires: https://duckduckgo.com/?hps=1&q=UPS+Fire+datacenter&ia=web. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Stable Diffusion 3

  Taking the actual example you provided, I can understand the issue. Since it amounts to blurring images of a virtual character, that are not actually "naughty." Equivalent images in bulk quantity are available on every search engine with "yennefer witcher 3 game" [1][2][3][4][5][6] Returns almost the exact generated images, just blurry.

• Google Reneged on the Monopolistic Bargain

  The framing of this as a Google issue would suggest that other search engines wouldn’t have this issue, but I’m not sure that’s true? The “air purifier” search on DDG seems to give the same set of blogspam results: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=h_&q=best+air+purifier+for+pet+hair&ia=web Can someone with Kagi check to see if Kagi does better here? - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Concept of Anyfund: Gratitude Funds for Charity

  Another possibility for Anyfund could be to allocate its funds exclusively for charitable purposes. Maybe we could have 100% eco-friendly Anytype merch? Imagine the fascination of observing community-driven charitable endeavors and sustainable initiatives, reflecting our commitment to a nurturing & open future. This could be inspired by the "noble" apps, of which I've personally used Ecosia, where the act of using... Source: 9 months ago

• Why Firefox doesn't launch their own Private search engine ?

  - Ecosia - A search engine that uses 80% of its profits from ad revenue to support tree-planting projects. They publish their finances on a monthly basis - https://blog.ecosia.org/ecosia-financial-reports-tree-planting-receipts/. Source: 10 months ago

• Tulsa Earth Day Celebration at the Guthrie Green (Friday-Sunday)

  I literally just copy and pasted this information, but I for one am excited about Earth Day; I look forward to it every year. Also, since we're on this topic, ecosia.org is a search engine that plants trees with the ad revenue they generate (they're a carbon negative company!). Source: 10 months ago

• Is this censorship or is the site just broken?

  If you go to ecosia.org or qwant.com on any mobile browser (Safari, Chrome, etc.,.) and search for ghandi you also get no results. Its only when the search query ends in ghandi, for example "ghanid date of birth" returns results fine. Source: 11 months ago

• Microsoft is making it easier to block annoying autoplay videos in Edge

  DDG was caught allowing Microsoft/Bing trackers through a deal with Microsoft, use Startpage or Ecosia instead. Source: 11 months ago
