New search observations. Brave’s AI still trails the website.

On 3 November 2026 we compare new search results with earlier observations. Every query uses the integrated browser and site:mario-obst.fyi. Result lists and capture times are preserved as evidence.

DuckDuckGo and Bing: seven visible destinations

Both domain queries show the same seven HTTPS destinations: the DE/EN portfolios, EN006, DE001, EN009, German legal notice and English Privacy by Design page. DuckDuckGo then reports no further results. Bing displays “About 7 results” and seven visible result blocks. We count visible destinations rather than the estimate.

Mario explicitly authorised this Bing follow-up. Seven of the 100 historical URLs in note 038 match exactly; 93 are absent from this list. Unlike 27 October, we did not repeat 100 individual queries. That earlier check found four pages overall. Different scopes prevent a complete growth calculation; absence of the old HTTP homepage does not establish deindexing.

Startpage: 70 distinct directly linked destinations

We follow visible pagination through seven result pages, ending where no Next link remains. Direct destination links produce 70 distinct URLs; repeated auxiliary cards are deduplicated. Both languages and several page types appear. This covers more than the early screenshot excerpts in note 044, but is not a complete index count.

The supplementary Swisscows lists contain 36 distinct URLs. We checked offsets 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40; offset 40 repeats the ten destinations from offset 20, at which point we stop. The dataset specifies the checked page coverage. This is an observed minimum, not a full count.

Brave’s AI: older states and misassigned numbers

In a fresh chat we supply today’s date and ask for the count, latest number, title and date in both overviews. We supply neither the current count nor the identity of the latest note.

The answer names 43 notes on the homepage and still 35 in the German overview. It also incorrectly assigns the Bing title to 042 and the film title to 041; they actually belong to 043 and 042. The AI acknowledges that it cannot verify the live site. Its explanation about a stored index state is not an independently established technical diagnosis.

A direct public check before publishing this note shows 44 notes per language. The latest is 044, dated 29 October, “DuckDuckGo, Startpage and Swisscows: search observations since launch.” Both public overviews confirm it. The subsequently added notes 045 and 046 are outside this historical measurement state.

What follows from this

Search results, older snippets and an AI answer offer different views. Matching result lists do not establish shared technical provenance; missing results do not establish non-indexing. Time since submission does not establish an effect. Image search, new submissions and Bing Webmaster actions are outside this check.
