Try the semantic map of https://swisscows.ch/ While usually DDG is sufficient for my uses i'm noticing falling back more and more often to the swiss cows. This map thing really helps to separate that which is of interest to you, from unrelated things. Be it the same abbreviations used across different fields, names of persons or corporations across history, ...

I'd be very happy if DDG had that, since i'm so used to it. But it doesn't.

I think https://www.qwant.com/ had something very simialar many years ago, but now it's gone, or i'm mistaking it for some other prototype/beta which had that.

Was excited to try it more after an initial impression, but this is a no-go for me:

> 1. We promote moral values.

Which of course is code word for "We promote our values". Can't believe we're in 2020 and this is part of a pitch.

[LargoLasskhyfv]

I didn't even notice that! OTOH doesn't everybody promote his values in some (hidden) way? At least they say so.

For me it is there, useful, and free to use.

Take it, or leave it, so to speak :-)

They block certain results because of that, and there is no option to disable that. That's a big no to me. How do I know what results do they consider moral enough to show me?

I always use Safe Search when using Google. I've never watched porn and don't plan to start now, so I appreciate that I know my results from this site will be SFW.

[maayank]

They cite “family values” and have an illustration of a heteronormative family on the “morals” page. Does that mean they filter gay-related results? Gay marriage related results? Would you prefer them to filter it?

I have no idea if they do, but it’s foolish to even cause such questions and disambiguation with your brief (which you inevitably do when you do “morals”)

Thank you for the link, the mapping of sub-topics looks interesting and promising. Reminds me of HotBot circa 1995.
