So. I’ve been using startpage for a while and was wondering if it were better over DuckDuckGo ?

      I mean sure, if you ignore the first 20 or so relevant links before that, you’re right, that one does show up when searching for monkey (proof)

      You can add literally any other word to the search and that one result disappears. Even bear monkey. Regardless of the fact that no one searches for just the word monkey, I find Kagi’s rankings consistently prioritize more quality and informative content.

      Comparing to other search engines, Google is obsessed with the movie The Monkey, Bing really wants you to watch Monkey Baby Bon Bon live what looks like a nightmare life, Brave gives an OK mix of content, still with a The Monkey focus, and Kagi gives you a really solid mix of results across the monkey spectrum for such a vague query (plus one whole link to an article about polar bears).

      If the polar bear result specifically bothers you, you can report it to Kagi and I’m sure they’ll fix it. I’m still happy with my choice though.
