від aths, 4 роки томуIt seriously shows ads first in the search results. I always need to scroll past the ads to reach the actual results. It refuses to show the search results & gets broken, when ads-block or similar extensions like no-script are in action. Quite unexpected behavior considering the name "private search engine".

оприлюднено 3 роки томуThanks for trying Startpage. Ads are how we are able to provide a free private service. It might interest you to know that the team has been hard at work overhauling and improving the search experience. Among those improvements launching this month will be a reduced-ad experience on mobile.
From time to time, we do test the performance of our search results with extensions like the ones you mention and we haven’t found any major issues. In responding to your comment, we tested with several, including NoScript, and were able to pull up results just fine. With NoScript, the menus above the results disappeared, but that is to be expected unless you add us as a trusted domain. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at support@startpage.com.
Thanks for caring about privacy!

- Оцінка 1 з 5від Perkinelma, місяць тому1) Searching from the address bar reveals your search to your ISP
2) Searches from the address bar default to Safe Search: Moderate and there's no way to change that.
Just use a bookmark instead or make Startpage your home page. - Оцінка 1 з 5від Tommi, 2 місяці томуIn letzter Zeit sehr häufige Serverprobleme mit 404. Eine Suchmaschine, die man suchen muss ist Schrott.

- Оцінка 1 з 5від Користувач Firefox 18181735, 4 місяці томуI was so excited to find this as an alternative to Google, but it's been taking up my searches with animated popups right in the way of my search, asking me to add them to my Ad-block Whitelist and to try their new AI tool.
It's actively getting in the way of searches and harming the user experience. I'm not a fan of DuckDuckGo's results and policies, but I'm switching back. - Оцінка 5 з 5від Sara, 5 місяців томуThis is the ONLY search engine that hasn't included clankers like Gemini or Duck.AI (PLEASE advertise this, this is a major thing for me). On top of that, it is functional, and cares about my privacy. It's the trifecta!
- Оцінка 5 з 5від Користувач Firefox 19517792, 7 місяців томуIt seems to me that nearly all issues mentioned by reviews that are not 5 starts are not relevant anymore. Thanks for a great search engine that actually shows me results. On google, searching for "PCGarage free delivery" gets me an Emag result first, that isn't sponsored...how the heck does that work?...
- Оцінка 1 з 5від seeley, 8 місяців томуCannot search from the address bar without my ISP seeing what I'm searching. Please keep the search terms OUT OF THE ADDRESS BAR when searching from the address bar with Startpage. Is there a way to manually configure a Startpage search string so the search terms do not populate the address bar- when searching from the address bar with Startpage? Thanks.
NEVERMIND: I'm getting hit with "Sponsored" BS a the top of my search results. Back to DDG. - Оцінка 5 з 5від narancasta, 9 місяців тому

- Оцінка 1 з 5від Користувач Firefox 13508883, рік томуI went to the startpage site because duckduckgo was having issues briefly, and I added the search add-on, the type that you used to get on mycroft, in case I ran into trouble like that again. When I did this, it surreptitiously went ahead and installed this full browser extension as well. The process was either without my consent, or made to look like I was consenting to the thing I actually wanted.
Go figure, sketchy behavior by the company that used to use Alex Jones as a poster boy. I'm ticking with Duckduckgo, but I was alwas going to. This just confirmed my feelings about Startpage.Відповідь розробника
оприлюднено рік томуThanks for caring about privacy. Our extension follows normal installation steps and requires consent. Nothing is installed until you confirm using the standard Firefox dialogs. - Оцінка 5 з 5від Користувач Firefox 7035236, рік тому
