  DuckDuckGo now has their own browser that blows FF out of the water.

    If its chromium then don’t bother, let’s not forget how Google tried to take over the Internet through chromium browsers

        I thought the DDG browser was Firefox with some branding and plugins?

  I use it now. On Firefox.

  This is how it’s done.

  I haven’t googled anything in years.

    So what verb do we start using then? Duckling? Ask Jeeving? Yandexing?

      Honestly just “searched” is probably fine.

        Yeah. In this day and age noone will think you went to a library to look it up.

      Googling. That’s how you invalidate a trademark.

      Just use “search”; we don’t want to make a company name the new synonym for search otherwise we are stuck with that company when it gets evil

      I’m actively still using “google” to turn it into a common verb and make Alphabet lose the rights to the word.

    I’m trying to not use Google or YouTube starting this month at least for this month. (i.e. September 2026)

    (So far so good. :)

    Nah, use it on the DDG browser for extra cool.

  I wanted to use Ecosia but they won’t let you 100% disable AI, which is fucked for a supposedly green venture for so many reasons.

  I’ve switched to kagi.

  It’s not free, but it’s absolutely the best IMO.

  When I search something I don’t see an AI summary. Not sure if I disabled that or not.

    It only triggers if you end the query with a ? or you can turn that off too in the settings kagi.com/settings/ai
