Im getting so sick and tired of Google rn. Reddit has become a better place to search for questions than Google has. I need a new search engine :(
No, I don’t want Kagi either, I dont wanna to pay a subscription for a search engine just to get what I want. I tried all the others, Ecosia, Duckduckgo, etc… But they usually fall flat cus they just don’t have some of the quirks that Google has that I like, specifically when it comes to image search.
I want a browser I can easily adjust to, which is why I want it to function/look like google. Yes, I did try searching for it, but I’m not getting anything reliable (how typical)
Also, if anyone can recommend me a browser better than Opera GX that’s JUST as customizable as GX is, that’d be great too.
*Please don’t bully me over using GX. Everyone keeps yapping about it being Chinese Spyware or something or other, but the level of customization I can do with it is a total godsend. I don’t know any other browsers that let me have interactive wallpapers or keyboard sounds, let alone the silly screen filters! I like having complete personalization over my stuff, its fun for me.
Read my name and quickly the idea that I wanna see it becomes invalid 😭
The reason why I get porn is because im often searching up art and characters.
I have a heavy interest in hunky characters and bara lookin dudes. I like searching for art of characters that fit that or just artists that draw em, shirtless dudes is one of the things I- might be looking for👉👈 but that doesnt mean I wanna see full blown genitals 🤢
My reason for wanting to keep safe search off is cus I dont want it omitting whole images or links. I would very much like to just have the NSFW stuff blurred but still show up. Cus sometimes the bot just gets it wrong and the image deadass isnt porn nor is it that bad.
The sad part about that is searching for stuff like this gets you porn, but it’s not that frequent it comes up so I stay relatively fine. on DDG it seems to pop up way more frequently than on google. And GOD FORBID I try searching for “Humanoid pokemon/anthro pokemon”
:(
In conclusion. I wanna see cute dudes and sometimes cute girls for reference on stuff, but I dont wanna see straighten up nsfw or only see nsfw. DDG Seems to prioritize the spicy stuff.
I saw the name, but I couldn’t tell whether it was meant to be ironic. And even so, there’s the implication that you might be interested in inspecting them, which could explain your reasoning.
Nonetheless, I think you should turn safe search on, and only turn it off when you don’t see what you want. There’s even the halfway option of “moderate” as I mentioned. Give that a try.
oh- yea i shoulda said read the last part of my name XD
the fuck i get downvoted for- damn, lemme enjoy my men >:(
