Yandex. Because it's the shortest to type. Ua.ru

1. When I'm looking for something important, I use different search engines: (each one knows something that the others don't, you know?) mainly Yandex and Rambler, and sometimes others. 2. But in general, if I need to find something quickly, I use Google, so it's number one. If it doesn't find it within a couple of minutes, then I refer to point 1.

Well, browsers have a search history – you don't even need to enter any address there;)

Google knows everything!

Yandex turns out to be a great thing. It has so many useful features :D For example: I typed in the syllable "se" and it gave me possible options: Sekas Secrets of VKontakte (how can anyone be so obsessed? :D) And a bunch of other various series))

In Yandex, you can enlarge and save images, while in Google, you have to open each one separately:(...
And in Yandex, you can also choose the color scheme for image search:)
But the text search seems to be the same in both.

It all depends on the language I use to search. If it's Russian, I almost always choose Yandex. If it's English or German, I only use Google. I have the Google toolbar installed in my search engine, although I probably should change it to Yandex – after all, I search in Russian much more often... but I keep forgetting.

Yandex is good for the Russian internet. But I personally use Yandex quite rarely, because Google usually handles all my requests, and often does so much faster.
The main thing is to "tell" it correctly what you want ;)

Google has a simpler query language, and if you use all its power, it will find anything and anywhere. Honestly, I still haven't figured out how to use Yandex, because Google's syntax doesn't work for it, you know :)

Google wants to be like Microsoft and subtly forces you to use its products :) Fortunately, it deserves it, and besides, it's free ;)

I've been using Nigma for over a year now. It searches really well, and the filter system is great.

I've heard of it. It seems to me that this is just spam, because Nigma is just another marketing project with a referral system. Therefore, a ban is appropriate - this user is unlikely to return to this forum.

However, regarding Nigma, it's worth mentioning that such a search engine exists - I tried using it once. It works by searching through the caches of popular search engines - Google, Yandex, Rambler, etc. It doesn't stand out in any particular way, except for the network marketing system that's attached to it. But it's worth checking out the search engine for fun.

I prefer Google, but Nigma is also quite an interesting tool, especially because of its filters. I sometimes use it when I need to find something related to mathematics, as Google immediately provides some nonsense, primarily Wikipedia.

I use Bravica's new search engine; it doesn't get on my nerves, and it filters search queries properly, providing mostly what I'm looking for, rather than what Yandex suggests. Sometimes, when you type a word into Yandex, it corrects it because the search engine thinks there's a mistake, even though there isn't; it might be a surname, for example. I've switched to a more normal alternative.
