It is time to go back to meta search engines I guess

I don't think meta has a search engine yet, though.

I don't see how this is something to be applauded. The company is successfully worming it's way into common vernacular. Meta, Apple, Block, etc. Pretty soon you won't be able to speak a sentence without invoking 6 different brands' free advertising.

They are applauding the pun, not the company the pun refers to.

My monitor's pretty hi-res and big.

How about a 3-column search that's Google, DDG (so, Bing), and Yandex, with a single search field for all three? Bonus points for syncing it up so if I click, say, the "Images" tab on one of them, it switches the others over, too.

Kinda like how Allsides functions for news/political bias.

Owned by an Ad company these days. But yes they do promise "We'll never do evil". They belong in the grey area. But at least they haven't been caught with their hands in the cookie-jar multiple times like Brave so they got that going for them. I'd stay clear.

Startpage is a Google proxy. The Pirate Bay is filtered out there as well.
