Qwant search engine

[Tacet]

Saw a (seemed sponsored) article about Qwant browser, and got curious. Anyone using it? For basic searches it seems to give fairly similar results to google, but with a bit less sponsor-prioritization. I stumbled across a few stores I've never seen on Google results before.

It started off on the Bing API, but seems to have moved on quite a bit from there.
