I use Duckduckgo, but I realised these big(ish) search engines give me all the commercialised results. Duckduckgo has been going down the slope for years, but not at such a rate as Google or Bing has.

I want to have a search engine that gives me all the small blogs and personal sites.

Does something like this exist?

      That is exactly what I needed; the subdomains are now in my bookmarks.

      Replying under the top comment but this really applies to all of these, how do these search engines determine what counts as a personal site? For example I had procrastinated for years on finally spinning up a static, barren HTML blog. The infamous Lucidity AI post introduced me to Mataroa and I got over the hump and started writing. Would that get indexed? Etc

      Does it just crawl through webrings?

        I believe you have to submit your own website to this one for manual addition to its index

      I’m intrigued. The search results are more akin to how they used to be 25 years ago on the internet that I loved
      Https://Search.marginalia.nu is definitely something I’ll be exploring going forward!
