(obviously: this is subjective, so what's significant to me may not be to you.)

Honestly I just created this search engine for myself to find things more easily while programming or studying (I study biology, cs and ai; and philosophy in my free time, so expect results the best results for queries related to those subjects). I think those subjects also appeal to the HN audience, that's why I shared it here. When I'm not doing those things, I just use Google or DDG because they have better results for day-to-day queries.

That being said, I'm definitely interested in helping improve other people's search as well (reason I'm posting at all), so let me know if you have suggestions for sites to add!

Thanks for sharing. My initial comment sounded a bit harsh. I am sorry for that. I will look into fine tuning it for my needs. It is an interesting approach to a very annoying problem.

NP :) It's exciting to have people using & commenting on something I build.

If a premium version were available with a customizable whitelist, would you pay for that? The API is around $5 / 1000 searches so it would cost about the same.

Yes, a product which cleans my search from most referral sites is something I would pay for.
