PriEco: New open source web search engine

Add Mwmbl (Search Engine) Tool Suggestions > According to one of the devs, Mwmbl currently has around 500 million indexed pages (“when I last checked [sic!]”) which is, well, not two times as much as PriEco, but significantly more than it. (I am not trying to discard or not appreciate PriEco’s effort, in fact it is a great project and I think has its own advantages too, I am just comparing two samely unknown, privacy-focused search engines.) PriEco has around 350 million right now. You’re right, it’s at ~360M right now. I’m now improving the index architecture, so inserts are paused. But I already have over 100GB of compressed data waiting to be inserted. I believe that would cross 400M I’m keeping you all updated here PriEco Quality Benchmarking - #8 by JojoYou If I understood correctly how Mwmbl works, inside it’s a completely different project to PriEco PriEco is actually 2 months older than Mwmbl, but for 3 years of its existence, I was trying to create something like Kagi, or more closely to SearX, SearXNG as I didn’t know about Kagi back then. As I don’t believe paying for web search engine by default is viable option for most people, I wanted to keep it fully free. Which isn’t possible So, I worked on PriEco Crawler. PriEco Index is just months old, while Mwmbl is 4.5y And as I reached 300M, I shifted my focus from scale to crawling the exact URLs PriEco users would need Mwmbl also runs on a donated VPS, I own my hardware I see I could seem negative here. I am truly not trying to be, in fact I learned some stuff from Mwmbl too Their new UI is much better than the last one, and they do certainly have an architectural advantage compared to me in search speed
