    I use Andisearch, also as PWA in mobile. It’s an AI search assistant, 100% privacy focused, no tracks, ads or logs, reader view of webpages, Video view in search results, Bangs, alternatives websearches with several engines, OpenSource. Anyway I added mwmbl to my list, it’s a very good engine, I only miss the image and video opcion.

        It is, but Andi is still in development. There is a community in Discord where you can speak with the 2 devs, Angie Hoover and Jed White, that is the whole company. Anyway wors fine with 100% privacy.

          Then it is not yet. :/

          It does not make it Open Source in the moment they claim it. Open Source has requirements stated already by OSI. It is or it isn’t and there is no middle term.

          Open Source requirements imply the same for Free Software plus some additional ones.


          It is a bit sad they are only available using yet another nonFree platform.

            You say it, not yet. I’m not sure it would make sense to publish all the source code, more than the basic one, on Github, if it is an experimental alpha product, in intensive development and improvements and changes every few days. It is enough for me that it really respects privacy and, even in alpha, it is extremely practical.

            Anyway, as you can see in my screenshot above, that I use apart a lot of diferent search engines and specific site searches, depending of what I need to search. I use Andi as first search for the daily common use, for which is normally enough, giving me direct answers and not only a list with not related results.

        I don’t know, AFAIK in it’s final version, they’ll have a paid plan for companies with extra features respect colaboration and business use. As I say, in the moment its in an experimental alpha phase.
