отличное расширение, рекомендую!

I went to the startpage site because duckduckgo was having issues briefly, and I added the search add-on, the type that you used to get on mycroft, in case I ran into trouble like that again. When I did this, it surreptitiously went ahead and installed this full browser extension as well. The process was either without my consent, or made to look like I was consenting to the thing I actually wanted.

Go figure, sketchy behavior by the company that used to use Alex Jones as a poster boy. I'm ticking with Duckduckgo, but I was alwas going to. This just confirmed my feelings about Startpage.

Very handy search engine but startpage.com is not available in China /(ㄒoㄒ)/~

"Server Not Found" and abysmal wait times. No, it's not my connection.

Similar to Duckduckgo and Brave but does not give detailed AI answers like Deepfind

Was using this for a few months but found out recently about the fingerprinting with uBlock, so changed to Mojeek and DDG

I had high hopes but it's just another feeding trough for the mouthbreathing contingent. The first result is always a BIG yt video, which seems to be impervious to UBO's element picker/zapper. this can be removed by blocking scripting but then startpage itself becomes nearly unusable without JS enabled. Image search basically breaks.

The web continues it's death march towards increasing disutility

Used to be great but "Uh-oh, there are no results for this search" for a month for every search input

Definitely better than DuckDuckGo, not sure why DDG gets baked into FF but I have to install an add-on for SP. Guessing DDG is paying to be included??

However while Startpage is my "go first" search choice I end up at Google more than I would like [~30-40%] because SP is not there yet as far as the results go. SP is just not as good Google yet.

Technical topics tend to be where SP struggles the most and the main problem is that Startpage is giving too much weight to older pages. Trying to trouble shoot software and most of the results are from ~2018 happens way too much. Changing "Any time" to "Past year" helps but that can be too short of a time period.

The other main issue is search modifiers are inconsistent, for example a negative modifier Windows -Microsoft may or may not work and the same with using quotes as in "Windows for my house" is a coin flip if I am going to only get results with the exact match or not.

Keep working on it as I would be happy if I never had to use Google again....

even if web interface is available, any search for any query every time returns NO RESULTS.
absolutely useless stuff for 'search engine' which simply stopped working and isn't being fixed for several months at least.
but what a good thing it was before...
R.I.P, Startpage!

well i like it my only problem dont know if it startpage or firefox but the reader icon and the star in the address bar needs a option to remove delete throw it in trash permanently because it is a annoying piece of garbage dont need it dont want anything ever in the address bar besides what i type in it !! everything i need is in the drop down menu all i need all i want everything else is useless and needs togo especially search bookmarks and search tabs can not stand that garbage !!! get rid of that stupid annoying garbage or at least give people option to not install that garbage it just pisses people off and and clutters my browser with more crap people including i dont want and usally is something i can do with my drop down menu anyway just like worthless widgets this idea is the biggest piece of garbage that does nothing but clutter up a computer with no way to remove that whole prorgram !!!! god how i wish there was a way to remove all wigets from a computer or i wish i knew enough to figure out how to remove wigets app from my computer
