i have been anticipating this release for some time now. I am an avid user of ecosia and find the results passable in comparison to google. A couple of queries a week I am unsatisfied with and switch to google or a chatbot these days. I hope this new index is also comparable in quality and one step closer to a bit more competition in this market. Sadly, I could not find an official blog post or anything on the qwant news site..

I found about it on LinkedIn, because Christian Kroll wrote about it:

I've no clue why they don't have a blog post or anything up yet.
