Comment on Ecosia has Planted 250 MILLION Trees

I’m quite hesitant to use Ecosia. This whole planting trees while searching sounds good, but if we are honest, it only works if I disable my ad blocker and occasionally click on the ads being shown. And this is something I really do not want to do. And if I use Ecosia with an ad blocker, I’m kind of planting negative trees because I’m only producing costs and no revenue.

And, the search results are crap. As bad as Google has gotten, it’s better than Bing/DDG/Ecosia.

That's the sticking point. I use NoAI DDG as my main engine, but I keep having to go back to Alphabet.
