Two horizontally stitched screenshots comparing a search for “Reavers GIF” on DuckDuckGo and Google in Safari iOS (private tabs). DDG presented zero Firefly/Serenity relevant results while Google found them exclusively.
Hopefully a privacy-focused yet fast instance for US West Coast cheapskates who probably should pony up for Kagi, buttttttttttt

Great recommendations, and you got a Whoogle in there as well!
Looking into some of those instance maintainers.
Thank you!
Try safe search off instead of the default moderate.
Does putting “Reavers” in quotes help?
Good question, something I wondered about after I posted.
Nope - OK, you know what helps?
Searching via the DDG site and then tapping images. Apparently I typed “reavers gif !ddgi” to save the tap and it does a hidden spelling correction to “reverse”?!
One mystery solved!
Edit: annotation in a dark font due to iOS 18 Markup bug, sorry it’s hard to see there in the upper right
None, I self host Whoogle.
Nice. Are you the only one on your instance? I seem to recall reading there’s a privacy consideration there. Like, maybe the ideal is knowing the maintainer and having some number of people all using it.
Yeah, just me. Not available externally without VPN access.
