Sadly I don't have that answer on the top of my head. Maybe ask in [email protected] to whether others might be able to help.

It isn't marked as less private. It is grayed out because it is not based in Europe. I personally use them as I find them the best option with what is out there.

Ecosia is a better balance between experience and independence. Mojeek sadly will be a hit in terms of quality of results.

For Search, it is about finding the least bad option and hope that they will become more independent. Mojeek (fully independent but poor quality) or Qwant (building own index, but dependent on Bing)

In the PrivateSearch section, but greyed out as they are not an EU based company.

It is decentralised, so it is considered a global company.

Xigxag is mentioned, but you're right that I forgot to include BookBeat. The others are US based apps but support your local library/bookstore

Thanks for the suggestion! Will add it to the next version of the guide.

Profit Share is good! It means they are sharing in the revenue. In this case, it is with your local libraries or bookstore!

Another shoutout to the "Library Extension". It will help you find alternatives should Storytel not have the option you want.
