I think startpage.com just scrapes and forwards Google results. I am not sure how well it works for non-English searches.

I have used that one too. And am paying for startmail. Have been satisfied with the mail.

startpage.com is good also with non-English, but what maemo browser works with that?

I am quite happy using a combination of StartPage and Qwant

Strange, haven't been using Google for years.
Feels as weird to use Google (on somebody else's config) as back in the days starting DuckDuckGo.
Don't forget to throw some searches in QWANT.COM --> can you believe it: the European Search Engine exists - who will purchase / absorb it if not already done ... place your bets..

Browsing outside of Firefox / Fennec I find pretty tyresome due to lack of plug ins and reading modes etc...
The only other mobile browser I really enjoyed was MicroB.
Pity Jolla still has to waste time in keeping their own Sailfish Browser dragging along.

Which Fennec you are using and with what plugings? Do you have TLS1.2 with Fennec? I haven't found a way to update certs.

Qwant works with Fennec on N900. But even lite.qwant.com doesn't work with Micro-B or Opera with N900.

Hint for desktop Opera users, you can set up easily Qwant to searchengine shortcut:
Name: Qwant
Keyword: q
Address: https://www.qwant.com/?q=%s&t=web

then only type on adress bar:
q [your word(s)]

This is my last hope for sites if nothing else opens them. Have used it also for whatsappweb and instagram. Not for faint hearted or with hurry.
