@BlumeEvolution Ernst gemeinte Frage: Was ist mit dem Begriff "Rechtsdualismus" gemeint? Wikipedia kennt den Begriff nicht. Der Duden kennt den Begriff nicht. Die Internetsuchmaschine - in diesem Fall #startpage - kennt den Begriff nur für Situationen, wenn gleizeitig zwei verschiedene Rechtsordnungen gelten. Das scheint hier aber nicht gemeint zu sein.

I've been trying Qwant, Ecosia, and StartPage to replace DuckDuckGo. What I'm missing:

* Unit/money conversions: "15 miles in km" (StartPage has this but for money)
* Bang to switch to another search engine like "!g". It's quicker on mobile to prepend "!g" than to copy the search query to the address bar and swap the search engine
* "define term" search

I don't want to use Kagi. Any thoughts?

Maybe I should get some unit conversion extension...

I paid for an annual #StartMail (by #Startpage) subscription back in January, but the experience so far has been very subpar… It’s missing both basic (e.g. displaying emails in conversation/thread format) and advanced (e.g. calendar) features 🙃

I’m happy that I can use “Add to Home Screen” instead of downloading another app, but the webmail UX is very clunky and the MFA UX is garbage (every time I open it, I have to open Bitwarden, search, then copy/paste the code). support.startmail.com/hc/en-us

Startpage is a search engine that has been promoted as a European alternative to Google Search.

This is a misleading statement.

💡 Très intéressante vidéo de @lecrivainsf sur les moteurs de recherche alternatifs à #Google. Bien qu'aucun ne soit parfait, ils existent et les utiliser à la place de Google contribue à effriter au gré du temps l'hégémonie du géant américain. Gwên revient d'abord sur ce que sont les moteurs indépendants, les méta-moteurs et les moteurs hybrides. Puis elle décrit et donne son ressenti sur #Qwant, #DuckDuckGo, #StartPage, #SearX / #SearXNG, #YaCy, #Brave et #Mojeek. #GAFAM

Olen yrittänyt vähentää Googlen käyttöä hakukoneena, mutta kovasti vaikeaa kun vaihtoehtoiset eivät tunnu yksinkertaisesti toimivan.

Siis ollenkaan.

En tiedä kuinka paljon tässä on kyse siitä että olen 20 vuoden aikana oppinut muotoilemaan hakusanat tavalla joka tuottaa Googlelta hyviä tuloksia (eli "works best on IE") ja kuinka paljon ettei haku vain toimi, mutta turhauttavaa kun tekee yksinkertaista hakua ja tulosta ei vain synny. Esimerkiksi:
