We only use DuckDuckGo for searches. It is non-partisan, does not censor, and does not store your past searches to put ads on your new searches.

I just searched for "WSWS" and the first 7 results were for the World Socialist Web Site (one of them is for their Facebook site, one for their YouTube site and one for their Wikipedia page) The 8th is for their rating by the Media Bias Fact Check site. Also, right under the top result are three links to recent articles on their site.

Just after them comes the Western Society for Weed Science

DuckDuckGo uses Bing for its search back end. Not surprisingly, the same search on Bing provides similar results. My opinion on Google is quite simple. Use anything other than their products whenever and wherever you can.

I used to use DuckDuckGo, but https://metager.org/ is my go-to these days.

Just to clarify, the issue is when you search for something that the site has written hundreds or thousand of articles on like “Leon Trotsky” or “US Imperialism” the wsws is buried several pages down in the search results. If you include “wsws” when you search it’s a different story. In other words unless you are actively looking for their articles it’s unlikely you will find them.
