Show HN: PriEco (open source, 400M index, EU search engine) integrated Goggles

https://prieco.net/

Back in 2021 I wanted to switch away from Google and try alternatives. To my disappointment they were... not great. I took a way of comparing qualities and disadvantages of each web search engine back then. What I discovered I cared about the most was privacy (like DuckDuckGo), ecology (Ecosia) and Google index (likely to signal quality of results, Startpage). To my disappointment there wasn't...

Uhhhh! I see it now. I will debug it today, this is a big issue. Sorry for poor user experience

The white page should be fixed now. I am unsure about the quotes.

Maybe you are using https://search.jojoyou.org/pri version? This version uses only own index and I haven't added there support for quotes yet.

In https://search.jojoyou.org/ quotes should work. (But I haven't done any changes to it yet)

Hey, thank you for the feedback! I will look into it, I guess there is somewhere bug with the quotes as well as the white page.

Sorry for it, will get back to you when fixed.

If you are referring to https://codeberg.org/JojoYou/PriEco/src/branch/master/api/go... It is SQL call to check if google results for that query are cached, or if it needs to call Google API

I use Google API. Yes, I do cache Google results into a database. And build own index! (The index is independent of Google results)

Hey, thank you for the comment. What is wrong about it?
