Choose a tag to compare

@buio2005 buio2005 released this 18 Jul 15:23

First public release of PeRank.

PeRank re-ranks the results of the major search engines by relevance, hides ads
and sponsored results, and helps you dig past the first page. It works only on
the results already present in the page: no automatic requests, no scraping.

Website: https://perank.tivustream.com

Features

  • Ad and sponsored-result removal on all 8 supported engines
  • Three ordering modes: Original, Reverse, Relevance (with an explained score badge)
  • Supported engines: Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Yandex, Brave, Ecosia, Yahoo
  • Opt-in deep search, where the engine allows it cleanly (see README for the
    engine-by-engine table — we deliberately show no button where it would not work)
  • Blacklist / whitelist of domains
  • Per-domain votes and a starred archive of saved results
  • Bilingual interface (English / Italian) with a manual language selector
  • Everything stays local: no server, no tracking, no data sent anywhere

Known limit

On Yandex, ad removal could not be verified: no test query returned an ad to
validate the selectors against. Everything else works there. See the README.

Install

Not yet on the stores. For now, load it manually — see the README for the
Chromium and Firefox instructions.
