Only reason I don’t use Ecosia is because you can’t search for “Within the past year”. Which is really necessary when you’re a programmer
Programmer for many years, didn’t know that feature exists. Not sure I’ll use it knowing it exists.
Your mileage may definitely vary haha, I use that feature a lot (I’m lucky / unlucky enough to work with a lot of new technologies)
I don’t generally use that feature, even as a programmer, but I use Google at work just because my privacy is already pretty exposed at work and I’m not looking up anything wild on a corporate network. I also enjoy the targeting in this particular instance because then my search results are developer focused
Oh yes, that’s very frustrating. It seems like searching within a date range is sadly non-functional on most search engines at this point.
