| > I think we should all take some time to appreciate... There are lots of things in the settings that I really like too: The Manage Optics (Copycats removal, Hacker News, Fediverse, more...), Site Rankings and Explore (similar sites). I like the overall thinking behind this search engine. It feels like they are creating the kind of search engine I would spec out myself. It starts off on a strong foundation. I do hope they crawl many of the older pages. Google, Bing (DDG), etal... seem to only index pages for the last 10-15 years or so. Quibble: "Allow usage statistics" is on by default which leads to this: "We primarily store the text you used for the search, and which results (if any) you clicked on." If you regularly clear cookies or have an extension that does this: it's something to keep in mind. While I intend to keep it _on_ to help the author(s) to help me find stuff - I hope it isn't used to once again make the popular sites - popular. In the process, bury the unpopular older sites (that have nearly completely vanished). |
