    Not since they got their own crawler which manages to be worse than Google’s one.

    At least I assume that’s what happened. Their results are noticeably worse than they used to be and noticeably worse than a Google search, although that might be because I’m signed in

      Aren’t they just an alt frontend for Google? Maybe you’re having issues with the UI. Most of the results should be the same.

        I often search for things with plenty of results on any other search engine and get one or (more commonly) zero results from Startpage. I remember they used to be a proxy for Google. I’m no longer convinced they are.
