I use Moz too. It works pretty well, but I do get a lot of "confirm you are not a bot" messages from Cloudflare, especially when I'm using LibreWolf to anonymize my browser headers (fingerprint).

Me too. I just want people (and the businesses they run) to deal with me honestly and fairly. If C-suite execs and investors were named and shamed over and over again, even for the little things, they might grow a heart and learn to build humane companies. Co-Ops give me hope. Free Geek in the Pacific Northwest. Independent book shops and restaurants. Qwant, MetaGer and Brave search and ublock origin and Mozilla and the fediverse give me some hope.
It's the #enshitification of everything. I listened to an interview with SAG-AFTRA by a new podcaster trying to survive and just when they start talking about the investors and products admitting to trying to build out till October when actors and writers start getting evicted... then some Amazon streaming services ad. And it happened again towards the end. And no warning or apology or mindfulness from the podcaster. So so depressing. The interview was great and happy to have heard it. Wish I could get access to information unpolluted by advertisement and capitalism. Thank goodness for the fediverse.
Maybe they aren't investing in advancing Watson as quickly as they used to. Perhaps they are rearchitecting. I'm trying to upgrade legacy transformers code to TF 2.0 and it's a big lift.
I use MetaGer as my daily driver and you.com for deeper niche searches
