[From "Yandex"]

We have received two huge benefits from the Ukraine war. One is that when Putin intervened in the Ukraine conflict, the Global American Empire everywhere overnight stopped enforcing worship of the awesome and mighty covid demon. The public announcements that masking and jabs were compulsory continued for a while, but everyone ignored them, and gradually they are stopping. Kind of like everyone started ignoring female emancipation when they tossed it in the lead up to World War II, even though it officially remained in force

Putin cured Covid

And the other big benefit is Yandex search

Type a thought crime into a search engine, any search engine in your browser’s list. For example “gay needs to be suppressed”

You will likely get slim pickings. Similarly, search for information on the war in the Ukraine, or the jab

Type it into Yandex.com, you get a reasonably balanced collection of links from both sides of the debate

Replacing your default browser search with yandex is likely to be difficult. You will have to find some little used and obscure ui for adding unlisted search engines, and will have to supply the search url, which for yandex is https://yandex.com/search/?text=%s&lr=10619 (Your browser will replace %s with the actual search string
