@stardepp , I found another one, it's OpenSource, privacy focused and works with AI, autolearning and with only relevant results.
Very different to others

@stardepp , works fine, but it's still in alpha and the source code isn't in the GitHub page yet,, until now only for members.

I,ve asked this in Andi and asking for the repository apears a questionary for a bug report

[stardepp]

@catweazle I like the Andi search engine so much that I have set it up as my default search engine.

[Catweazle]

@stardepp , same here, in the adressbar search, in the searchbar the engine as needed.

@stardepp, you can add Andi as PWA also in Mobile. Andisearch support PWA

[stardepp]

@catweazle What is a PWA?

[DoctorG]

@stardepp A web page running as Independent app.

[Catweazle]

@stardepp , it creats a access in the Desktop to open it, independient to Vivaldi. With this in Mobile you have an icon to start Andisearch and the search results are opened by default in Vivaldi.
It's a good workarround, until Vivaldi Mobile admits to ad/edit the default search engines.
PWA - Progressive Web App, are pages which admits to add them as independient window in the desktop.

What do you want to tell me with this?

[Catweazle]

@stardepp , nothing, only that Andi think that Alexa isn't privat and an promotion and advertising bot. Apart that Andi really understand what you ask him. That is what I've tested with this entry, but I don't thought in this answer, without showing any search results about Alexa.

[luetage]

@catweazle That’s the answer of your average corporate chatbot. It’s hardcoded. The bot didn’t become self‐aware and realized it is far superior to Alexa…

[Catweazle]

@luetage, of course, currently the intelligence of an AI does not actually exceed that of a grasshopper, this is clear, I only find the answer somewhat curious indicating the differences with Alexa.
In any other search engine, the same entry would have only shown me a list of websites with articles about Alexa, without further more.
It is not that it is superior in AI than Alexa, it sure is not, especially since Andi is still in alpha, from a 'company' of 2 devs, but if it is worth having it as a complementary search engine, if you want quick and specific answers, apart from that I naturally use others, such as Metager, Whoogle and some specific ones.

TinEar has an official Chrome extension that works with Vivaldi...
