How bad are search results? Compare Google, Bing, Marginalia, Kagi, and ChatGPT
Ironically I had to use a search engine to discover what "Mwmbl" was. It's apparently a search engine. But, visiting the front page, I see something akin to a git commit log?! I'm not sure I'd have guessed that this was a SE if Brave Search did not tell me it was (even then I'm not convinced yet).

Indexing a Billion Pages
I believe this is closer to the thing you were asking about, and the simple answer appears to be "a home grown one in python" https://github.com/mwmbl/mwmbl/blob/e544d45c374c13cdc1a5048d...

Marginalia: 3 Years
> I think a larger concern is how you'll address the Bus Factor going forward
I can't speak to how much energy it is to go from code to serving requests, but FWIW the code is AGPLv3 and seems to be updated regularly https://github.com/MarginaliaSearch/MarginaliaSearch/blob/v2...

The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
Regarding the last sentence: The problem is that capitalism knows no limits. Sure, it would be nice to pay a monthly subscription for genuinely good and desirable content/search results...
But what if the CEO of the service provider needs another $5m bonus? What if the stock needs to go up so that the shareholder gamblers can get more dividend paid? What if all of a sudden the service gets bought out?
The truth is that what you are seeking is more likely to come from someone who is just passionate about it with not that much motivation based on profit. That doesn't mean that this entity or person can't be financially supported but it gets problematic when profit is the _main_ incentive.
For a good example of an interesting search engine built by a single guy, see Marginalia: https://search.marginalia.nu/

The Web Is Fantastic
There's a decent amount of people still keeping the fire burning for the "old web." It takes a little digging, but it's out there.
Some links for you:
* https://wiby.me/ — search engine that emphasizes simple/plain/hobbyist pages. Try the "surprise me" link a few times.
* https://neustadt.fr/essays/the-small-web/ — article, "Rediscovering the Small Web"
* https://search.marginalia.nu/ — author (hangs out on HN sometimes, too (marginalia_nu)
Actually, here's a link to a similar discussion on an old HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30783391

Ask HN: What's your "it's not stupid if it works" story?
I built a recipe detector. You can, you know, train some sort of AI model to do this like with fasttext, or maybe do naive bayesian inference, but as it turns out, you can also:

It works annoyingly well.
- Marginalia is a great search engine that returns results from lesser-known blogs and websites

A new approach to domain ranking
Result ranking takes a lot of variables, and factors like excessive tracking and affiliate links is one of them in my search engine.
You can poke around in the result valuation code here: https://github.com/MarginaliaSearch/MarginaliaSearch/blob/ma...

"We pulled off an SEO heist with AI and stole 3.6M impressions."
#1 cause in the decline of Google maybe. https://search.marginalia.nu/ seems to manage though, so maybe Google just doesn't care.

Show HN: I am curating the best websites on the internet
Congratulations on shipping.
I see a lot of focus on startups, AI tools, productivity hacks, tech stacks, etc. What audience do you have in mind? I personally find that the most interesting sites on HN are outside of your scope here (examples: https://ciechanow.ski/, https://neal.fun/, https://search.marginalia.nu/).
