Or DuckDuckGo, ecosia, bing, askjeeves, nexislexis, Qwant, altavista…
wow, I had no idea it still existed! I don’t think I’ve used it since it was altavista.digital.com
edit: it doesn’t, it’s just yahoo search now
I thought the same about askjeeves, can’t believe it made it this long
Damn! This talk of forgotten search engines made me realise that dogpile.com is still alive! I dimly recall using it before Google’s rise to power.

What a blast from the past. I remember using Lycos in my school’s computer room. That was almost 25 years ago.

Can’t we just shout at each other instead like civilized people?
Why? Shouting is painful to hear and a waste of energy.
It’s therapeutic.
I’ll concede to that. But why shout at each other? None of us has wronged the other.
