There are various privacy focused search engine like duckduckgo, startpage, brave, etc. available. Even tho everything have approximately same results maybe because of bing & google API.

But i wish atleast that privacy focused search engines replace their social media post related search link results with privacy focused platform links. Like,

Reddit to lemmy X to mastodon Instagram to pixelfed Youtube to youtube or piped (no good options)

Then it would also a good support for those platforms too… But will it happen ?

    Well the harm from LLMs is not that minor but ig for some people it’s better than using high privacy tweaks and VPNs.

      Lots of progress is being made right now in reducing the computational power to train these things - but that’s where all the energy is used. Using the end-result isn’t that harmful; it doesn’t use any more power than playing a game would.
