From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Good! I'm looking to ditch most search engines (with the possible exception of Searx) since they have become so inundated with so much junk links. Louis Rossmann mentioned in one of his videos that he pays $20/month for GPT-4 since it fetches better results. But I'll look into this before I do so. Thanks for sharing this.
Kagi is the only search engine I use which has really good results and no junk links. ...and you have to pay for it, of course. It's a meta search engine but they use their own indexes for news results and Teclis, which indexes small commercial sites with fewer than 5 trackers. One of the cool features it added recently was an icon for identifying paywalled articles.
I'd like to recommend Mojeek, my default search engine, but it still has a way to go. If you're just looking for an "answer engine" rather than a general search engine...I guess an LLM probably isn't a bad place to start?
Thanks for mentioning us nonetheless! You can help out with that journey, if you want, by chucking some searches (either new ones or old ones you remember being not so great) into the Evaluation Page and voting.
It's good to see you guys on Lemmy :)
I tested it a bit a few days ago, but I'll see if I can give it a more rigorous go today. The ones I've found Mojeek to be weak in are bug strings that programs I'm working with spit out. Although I think I've had more luck in the past few months.
