What am I supposed to see? All engines give the same or very similar results for me

Probably some conspiracy nonsense.

I'm not sure why you think it's relevant to make such a remark without a shred of evidence regarding my thoughts.

I left it for the readers to form their own opinion. Something you apparently are loath to do.

Yes, I say what I mean. I don't hide behind the "I'm just asking questions" facade.

S/he literally didn't ask any questions though. Sounds like you have a lot of baggage and you're throwing it around here.

At least for me I saw that the search results for google were similar to brave while those for duckduckgo were similar to those from bing.

The detractor below apparently fails to understand that searching for controversial topics is a great way to see which search engines are similar, or relying on the results from other engines.

This is a great idea. I also tested this out with "Alex Jones", some engines show articles criticizing him above his own website.

How do they fare on the 'tank man' test?

nearly identical, iirc that was not the case on june 4th
