This is fantastic!! Thank you so much for writing it and sharing it.

One question, if Ecosia uses Bing + Google, does this mean using Ecosia indirectly generates revenue for Bing and Google?

Mostly on Lemmy. I’m on Mastadon too. I don’t know if YouTube counts but I’m on there as well and is the only corporate social media I use consistently.

I find myself using Instagram more but only following a handful of creators, I don’t post or check on my feed. I deleted my Twitter and LinkedIn but can’t get myself to delete my Meta accounts because of the people that I have contact with on there. I hardly contact ppl but the sentimentally of the connections is something

Thanks. I’ve only used for the second today but so far it’s pretty good so far

Thanks for the answer! I’ve been using DDG for the last few months and it is also bad anything map related or at localizing things (DDG also bad with news, it reverts to MSN alot as a news aggregator) )I will have to use Ecosia to real compare the two but their tree planting idea has made curios enough to try it. Thanks again

Thanks for the answer! They seem to be transparent, and even have a breakdown of they use their money by month, which I appreciate. Just wanted to make sure there weren’t any huge news stories that blew the lid on this and said it was all fake or something. Thanks again
