Oh that's interesting, glad I'm not the only one. Maybe I will try the Google Play version instead.

Same, Firefox on Android is extremely buggy for me. I experience frequent crashes because I have too many tabs open at once. Multiple times per day, I have to restart the app because the theme will bug between light and dark, which makes some of the UI text unreadable. And sometimes when I restart, I lose some of my most recent tabs for some reason. Very frustrating, but Firefox Sync and extension support are essential for me, so I deal with it.

By the way, I actually use Fennec from F-Droid and not Firefox from the Google Play Store, if that matters.

YouTube search is so frustrating to use. You search for a specific title, but instead you're usually shown vaguely related popular videos first, and then the actual video you want below those.

But what bothers me the most is that YouTube's data can't be fully indexed by search engines. Recently, I was trying to find the video of a comment I had a picture of, but it was impossible to find because comments aren't indexed at all. While Reddit's search also sucks for example, at least search engines can index Reddit's data and make it possible to search it.

It seems someone else in this thread has the same issue as you: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39395823

This seems to be recent, so I guess that's why I didn't experience it.

Wolfram Alpha seems to work quite well from my small tests, even with recent events. However, I don't really like to read an answer that seems like it's a person talking, I would rather just see the data in a big size like on Google. That's just a nitpick though, it's definitely useful. Thanks for telling me.

I don't know what you're searching for, but I'm also from EU and I'm able to use Kagi for everything, including content from my own country. Sometimes I might have to change the country or language filter, but I've never had a situation where something was available on Google but wasn't available on Kagi. Nowadays, I'm only using Google for some quick answers, like showing the score of a football match or the population of a country. Kagi doesn't seem to support quick answers for these queries yet, although I have seen quick answers for weather, calculations and shipping and flight tracking. So I'm sure more quick answers will be added eventually.
