Is it a surprise? Bing is controlled by M$, and their search results are taken by Qwant and DDG. Ecosia also runs with google results so it isn't affected.

MODERATORS
Jokes on you, i tried using qwant and they just straight up deny me access because using a VPN apparently is "suspicious".
I mean they're not wrong... Their motives are suspicious, so you use a VPN. 😁
Brave Search also returns results for it just fine as well. Which makes sense given they run with their own indexing now (with fallbacks to Google and Bing only when requested).
DDG is more of a privacy frontend for Bing then its own search engine. Typically if its not on Bing its not gonna be on DDG.
Works on both Brave and Google via Mullvad Leta
Ddg gets its results from more than just bing as well as doing some curation on top.

Kagi is unaffected.
I guess you are supporting my assertion?
I mean yeah, this is a screenshot of the search results. It is weird that there is a reddit post asking to see the opposite above the desired page which just needed the TLD added. But still, the page in question is in the search results.
Not sure why I got a downvote, but I don't mind being unpopular.
In context it felt like a rebuttal, but with the link clearly shown. Maybe a comment to help clarify next time?
For the record, I deprioritize reddit so the actual link is on top for me.
This is the problem with social media, especially Lemmy and Reddit. It is the default stance to assume a neutral comment is hostile. Why do we all argue so much? I've been there, but I'm trying to be kinder online. I think it's a systemic problem and I don't know the solution.

How do you do that in Kagi?
Click on the shield icon on the right, then the "down shield" icon in the resulting popup. Or you can block the site entirely!
Context is needed. What is that site? And why do you believe search results about it are being censored?
To be honest, the poster is "SPU," so this is probably 90% to promote the site. (Not that I really care that much in this case, I like South Park and think episodes that have Muhammad in them should still be available despite religious extremists being upset.)

You should be using SearXNG anyway.
To be fair, SearXNG still queries DuckDuckGo, QWant an Bing by default, I suspect Google does the same thing so Startpage would be out as well.
With default settings it still fetches southparkuncensored.com for me. It might query those engines, but it also queries other ones by default as well.
AFAIK, Yandex doesn't censor piracy stuff.
Streisand Effect incoming.
