So while we're on the subject of social media alternatives: any good google alternatives?

I don't want to support even a fraction of a second of alphabet media's server time.

Searx or DuckDuckGo. Use a safe browser too, I use Brave.

Just so you know, Brave (even while using Tor) is not guaranteed to give you a unique browser fingerprint because of screen resolution, video format support among other things - this means that sites can still track you.

The best option is to use the Tor browser itself which solves most of these issues.

Go to https://amiunique.org to see if your browser is unique.

Brave + DuckDuckGo is what I use

What benefit does Brave have over Firefox? I use Firefox with uBlock Origin as it stands.

u/Bill_Shevik_Jager, your qwant suggestion is amazing. No splc restrictions that plagued google since 2017, presumably not very well known (so probably not a honeypot), such a breath of fresh air to have a normal search engine.

I use duckduckgo and have for years. I will use Google only if I need something I know exists but DDG can't find

DDG is Jewish Owned, and Google gave Gabriel Weinberg the domain name for one dollar.
