  • Google search has some features that alternative search engines don’t. I use DuckDuckGo for 99% of everything, but I occasionally use Google to see local busy hours, or sometimes any hours, reviews, phone numbers without navigating a shitty website, etc.

    I think there are ways to break up Google search on its own, and make some of those features separate and accessible on other search engines.

    Then there’s the matter of advertising, data collection, SEO, exclusivity with corporations like Reddit, etc.

    Google is doing things with its search that seem to intentionally reduce the ability of other search engines to compete with them, and that’s really all that the antitrust laws are meant to prevent.

    Voyager just started their TestFlight app version a few days ago and it’s really great (on iOS.) It added haptic feedback which is very nice, and fixes the freezing issue. Otherwise it’s identical, I think. I’d guess there will be an android app sometime.

    I’m also testing Memmy and using Mlem - both are coming along great, but Voyager app version is the cleanest and my favorite atm.

    Looking forward to trying Sync when it comes to iOS. Never tried it for Reddit - only used Apollo.
