All Europeans 🇪🇺<p>The French 🇫🇷 search engine Qwant is trying to gain more users by starting a loyalty program.</p><p>Qwant has launched a loyalty program that allows users to earn up to €10 per week by conducting daily searches on Qwant.com. 💰 </p><p>The program works by accumulating points and climbing the ranking, with the top users being rewarded. To participate, users need to create a Qwant account and sign up for the loyalty program. 🥇 </p><p>Once signed up, users can earn points by using Qwant for searches, and these points can be redeemed for money that can be transferred to a user's bank account. 🏦 </p><p>Note: <br>- you don't need to create an account to use Qwant</p><p>- if you join the loyalty programme and receive money, you need to give your bank details (name and IBAN to receive the money)</p><p>- they say they don't store your search history, and if you're tempted to try it but don't know if you can trust them, use it wisely. You can use it to search for everyday questions that you don't care if others know about. It shouldn't be a problem to search for beautiful landscapes, but be careful with sensitive information about your health, for example.</p><p>Has anyone here tried this?

Harald Klinke<p>INITIATIVE: Ecosia and Qwant have launched the European Search Perspective (EUSP) to build an independent European search index.<br>The goal: strengthening digital sovereignty and providing a transparent, privacy-focused foundation for future technologies, including AI.

All Europeans 🇪🇺<p>So, to kick off our interview series, let's dive in with Christian Kroll, the big boss over at Ecosia. This cool German search engine actually plants a tree each time someone uses their search engine.</p><p>It's a really nice interview where Kroll chats fluently in German, French and English with Ecosia users and employees, and answers all kinds of questions about the company.</p><p>🌴 🌳 🌲 </p><p>You can also check out the Ecosia channel on YouTube, where you'll find loads of videos of tree-planting all over the world.</p><p>It's an incredible project and a very interesting concept. Let's hope they keep innovating... and planting!</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sJA-gHFCVo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=2sJA-gHFCV</span><span class="invisible">o</span></a></p><p>Open a tab and start searching! <a href="https://www.ecosia.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">ecosia.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ecosia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ecosia</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/searchengine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>searchengine</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/europeanalternatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>europeanalternatives</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/interview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>interview</span></a></p>
