(In your opinion)

I’m using DDG, but I’m not satisfied with it. The quality of answers is subpar and I find myself switching to google or LLMs when I’m researching some things where community opinion matter (for some reason reddit and forums are undervalued by DDG algorithm).

I could try daily driving alternatives, but I know I will be biased and it will noticably slow down my workflows.

    These aren’t what I would call ‘best,’ just supplemental when the best isn’t cutting it.

    Marginalia is pretty decent. I like that it lets you specifically search forums, wikis, blogs, or academia.

    https://wiby.me/ is good for exploring old-school sites. This is more of an answer to “how do I ‘surf the web’ in 2026?” than what you’re probably asking for. (The search itself is very keyword-y with no attempt to guess at relevance.)
