"We highly recommend only mentioning the brand name of your product since mentioning links in posts makes the post more likely to be reported as spam and hidden. We find that humans don't usually type out full URLs in natural conversation and plus, most Internet users are happy to do a quick Google Search," ReplyGuy's website reads.

I was considering Kagi but the the CEO is a maniac

I don't actually think that's the case - my reading of that whole kerfuffle was that the blogger had overreacted.

Agreed, but they both did in my opinion. I’ll stick with StartPage and DDG, myself.

Really? Do you use this criteria for everything in your life? Show me a ceo that isn't a maniac and I'll show you someone that hasnt had a proper psychological screening. Lemmy has blown up the lore on this guy anyway. Not much evidence he's any more of an asshole than most ceos.
