Comment on does anyone feel like searching doesn't give them a answer?

It’s gotten terrible over the last 5 years. AI slop is infecting everything and causing so much noise, it’s impossible to find real info anymore.
Best I can suggest is searches across Starpage, DDG, Qwant and Brave. When one fails, try the next one.

tenbluelinks.org gets you to have the web api for google. Can install it in your browser. I’ve been using it fr a year, even managed to build a shortcut (I named it “Google no AI”) in Safari on iOS and searches are tolerable on google again.

Yeah, I have a Searxng and 4get instance and I could add the Google API and have that option as well, but it seems like a minimal amount of effort barely proportional to what Google can go these days.
Maybe I’ll give it a shot.
