You've got to be kidding me, Microsoft, what the actual fuck. When you search for "google" in Bing, it will display a Google like page, tricking you into thinking you are on Google. The amount of INNOVATION coming from the capitalist behemoths is simply astounding!
🔍 A search engine is only as good as its search index. Even alternative search engines might be using indexes built by Big Tech. 👉 tuta.com/blog/what-is-search-i…

I have build a new and improve #search functionality for @MapComplete. Still a work in progress, but a first testable version is onli e here: pietervdvn.github.io/mc/featur…
It supports switching themes, showing search results on the map and suggestions.
Still to do: highlighting the result on hover and making sure that a search result and layer info don't both show.
Please, test it, break it and let me know what went wrong, what was confusing and what you'd still love to see.
The goal of this map is to present cyclists with an easy-to-use solution to find the appropriate infrastructure for their needspietervdvn.github.io
When you search for "identita občana" (Citizen Identity, ID for the Czech e-government), the first link #Google gives you (as an ad) is to a malicious website.
I wonder if companies like Google will ever be held accountable for spreading dangerous scams and getting paid for it.
The Man Who Killed #Google #Search.
This guy is taking no prisoners. Even though we all have a good intuitive sense as to why Google has gone to shit, there has been something slippery about it. This article makes it all more concrete.

This is the story of how Google Search died, and the people responsible for killing it. The story begins on February 5th 2019, when Ben Gomes, Google’s head of search, had a problem.Edward Zitron (Ed Zitron's Where's Your Ed At)
Sometimes finding perfect #search results can be a pain and Google buying dominance doesn't help. 🔎

Hey #Fediverse! @Seirdy has a 'forever' article: A look at search engines with their own indexes
One thing this article should remind you all about: there are three dominant #search indexes - Google, Bing, and Yandex. And Yandex is dominant outside of English.
But there are real options, and many of them are open source, especially for outside the commercial internet. (I am partial to the MarginaliaSearch project.)

If you've been waiting for full-text #search on #Mastodon, please go to #TootFinder and sign in. The more the merrier.

Thanks to @buercher for building it.
It's opt-in, not opt-out. It respects Mastodon culture and doesn't index accounts that don't sign in.
That means the index might be small if we don't spread the word.
Following on from this Initial Mastodon Guide, I have been seeing a lot of people asking for tips on how to find people and content to fill in their Home Timeline.
I decided to make a follow up video on how to best use search and also cover why sometimes you don't get the results you expect.
Any boosts will be appreciated to help others improve their Mastodon experience.
