Solved Q&A with Qwant
-
Join us this upcoming Friday for a Q&A session with Qwant's CTO, where he will be addressing questions from our community.
We've seen here whenever we poll our community about search engines that everyone has lots of opinions about it, so I hope you'll come up with some interesting questions!
The event will take place this Friday at 15 CEST. Please comment here or send me your questions, and I will select a few to ask live during the chat.
In case you don't know them, Qwant is a french search engine hosted in Europe and a company we have been collaborating with since 2018 because of our shared values.

I think that we have an amazing opportunity to create European only collaboration of dervices.
Vivaldi as the only browser we have.
Proton as the only VPN we have.
Now Qwant and Ecosia joined forces to create original search index from Europe?What a nice time to be in within internet space. Truly.

Kinda sad i dont see Qwant as one of default search engines. A lot of people, me included, are shifting from non-EU products.

There's Mojeek, which is UK, so technically non-EU.

@tomaspavlik Qwant = Bing, like Startpage = Google.
From Wikipedia:
Qwant is a French search engine that launched in February 2013. Qwant says that it is focused on privacy, does not track users, resell personal data, or bias the display of search results. Its results are largely based on Microsoft's Bing search engine.
So, Qwant is still subject to Bing's censorship.

@tomaspavlik, there is also the Mullvad Browser and VPN from Sweden and the Komqueror Browser from Germany (KDE, Linux only)
