      Too bad it still sucks.

      As a test, I searched Google for "headphone jack" site:lemmy.ml and got 18 results, whereas I got only two results with 4get (DuckDuckGo), and zero results on all the other engines (Brave etc).

      For a meta search engine, it’s surprising that it doesn’t support searching Google for web results.
