2024-04-17	aquarius	Qwant Search engine now blocks ad-blockers, in my case uBlock Origin, in that it displays a popup asking to disable any ad-blocker. Moreover uBO (with all native filter lists) blocks, has always blocked several items in Qwant. A search engine may have ads but what is NOT acceptable is that it fails to run flawlessly if it encounters an ad-blocker : doing so is idiot, but being stubborn and continuing to do so is insane, counter-productive (Qwant is already a minor search engine). I run 12 search engine, some display ads but NOT ONE refuses to run correctly when facing an ad-blocker ; this is Qwant's latest exotic decision (isn't the first, unlikely to be the last). My advice : avoid, this extension as well as Qwant, globally, the thing is a joke as well in the quality of the search results as as in the pseudo-privacy it claims to be. 25 years on the networks and never encountered such a bizarre place as Qwant.

2024-02-24	Panayiotis	Η καλύτερη μηχανή αναζήτησης και ένα πραγματικά τέλειο εργαλείο ιδιωτικότητας. Ένα μειονέκτημα μόνο οτι σαν μηχανή αναζήτησης δεν έχει το περιβάλλον στα Ελληνικά, αλλά τα αποτελέσματα είναι ΟΚ.

2024-01-25	AwJa	BEWARE! They are now anti-ad-blocking, claiming the need for revenue. They are blocking use of the search engine completely, unless ad blocking is disabled. It is insane to believe that this solution will not rely on shared meta data, now. This is what typically happens right before this sort of thing sells out to the data brokers. It was great while it lasted, but I have no doubt that QWANT will soon collect and sell our data (no matter what empty promises they make, just as they all do.) I am sad to have to go broadcast to everyone I recommended them to over the last year or so that they should drop this immediately and find another way.
