  • indeed so, thanks for flagging this I'll get it raised so we can see what's going on there

  • thanks a lot, if you have any search terms which didn't work so well then that's useful for this process

  • or didn’t have good enough indexes (e.g. Mojeek)

    Got anymore on that? Always looking to improve

  • We make money from our API, what they're referencing is a beta ads programme which was running

  • not sure what's happening there for you, speed is one of the things which people frequently say we do well for

  • we make money mainly from our api, our investors are patient private capital and we don't take vc, appreciate your point but these are fundamentally different situations, our ads (when they run) will also be contextual so more of a ddg situation than a "makes users into products to be sold to advertisers"

    fair enough if it's not for you though

  • The Express? There's definitely a not-reading-it option

  • Thanks a lot; these have been raised.

    I think Mojeek is probably the only search engine that listens this much to user feedback. Is there a Lemmy community or something similar where one kann submit queries like these?

    We have a Discourse: https://community.mojeek.com/ but also take these direct from search results pages (there's a Submit feedback button) or via https://www.mojeek.com/about/contact. It's all super useful for us so thanks in advance.

  • Mojeek also displays significantly more individual entries in its search results than Google or Bing

    Ah, yeah, that's from a blogger called Jack Yan who writes a lot on how many results you can actually get out of results 1-10 from n. What he's saying there, which is correct on checking, is that we will always display 1,000 results when we have them, whereas Google and Bing tend to either stop when you get somewhere in the 200/300s, or just repeat results.

  • Thanks a lot, I've raised the Kdenlive query. When it comes to searching for stuff with "yt-dlp" you mean there's normally another phrase or words in the query? Do you have an example; understand the problem but just trying to raise it with as much of a solid example as possible 🙏

  • thanks for flagging this, will get it raised

  • Got any examples of searches you could do with seeing improvement on? A big part of our process is collecting these (as well as identifying issues in crawling off the back of them)

  • this comparison

    the table you've cited is very out of date when it comes to us and other inclusions

    being backed or debated at least by UK politicians

    We came up in Hansard yonks ago 2011, mentioned by one MP

    they do have individualized answers as well

    I don't quite follow but if you mean results are personalised can I ask where you got that information? One of our main things is that we don't affect results based upon much more about you than country-level boosts
