For some reason this COMPLETELY blocks some captchas from working (arkose & arkoselabs.com) which breaks some websites, otherwise it's great!

Works fine

I've used all of the privacy search products for many months, some many years - looking into how they work, trying different settings configurations, keeping track of trends in results like accuracy, bias, and the similarity to results and adds offered by the major players. Adding Startpage is one of the first things I do when setting up a device/browser. Less bias, more unique results, less obnoxious ad tactics, and less creepy data fed to my digital twin. The only con is fewer results at times. Bears little weight when you compare the quality to the longer list made of endless repetative garbage.

Very cool looking page without hoopla with all the things I hate about Google taken out. I can't stand advertising because it has become the focus of everything, everywhere. Being able to search without it is similar to reading a book in a quiet place with no distractions. I would call it "comfortable". My laptop does not lag from everyone attempting to put things into my computer. My processor is calm. So am I. No blitzkrieg of unwanted ads. Finally a search engine that is up to date, quick, simple, and easy on the eyes. I hope it stays this way. Don't sell out to an alphabet agency. I will spread the word about this search engine as long as it considers my privacy. Thanks bunches.

It's nice to have such a nice little tracker-blocker.
The only thing that confuses me a little bit is that if I press three times Esc it blurs the page for a few seconds and when I press Esc a fourth time it closes the current tab and opens a new one with startpage.com
