NicdI've been trying Qwant, Ecosia, and StartPage to replace DuckDuckGo. What I'm missing:* Unit/money conversions: "15 miles in km" (StartPage has this but for money) * Bang to switch to another search engine like "!g". It's quicker on mobile to prepend "!g" than to copy the search query to the address bar and swap the search engine * "define term" searchI don't want to use Kagi. Any thoughts?Maybe I should get some unit conversion extension...<a href="https://masto.ahlcode.fi/tags/Search" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Search</a> <a href="https://masto.ahlcode.fi/tags/qwant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#qwant</a> <a href="https://masto.ahlcode.fi/tags/ecosia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ecosia</a> <a href="https://masto.ahlcode.fi/tags/StartPage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StartPage</a> <a href="https://masto.ahlcode.fi/tags/DuckDuckGo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DuckDuckGo</a>

Su_GNow when I use DuckDuckGo to search the internet for casual information I get a special box of info called “Assist”. At the bottom of the box: “Auto-generated based on listed sources. May contain inaccuracies.”What the? May contain inaccuracies? Why do it then? Just to waste my time? What is this brave new world of possibly inaccurate information & what do I do about it?Edit: Thanks to Mark C @ for the solution: “Clivk the gear and you can turn it off for all searches”. It worked!
