If anyone would be kind I would be interested in:
+1 for kagi, personally. Ive been using them for nearly 3 years and have never had a single complaint, and i literally complain about everything. Well…their maps requiring webgl is annoying…but at the same time its not loaded with nonsensical markers to the point of being unreadable.
I haven't used kagi before, is there a way to disable the AI assistant? I understand I don't have to use it, but I'd rather it not be on my screen at all.
Kate is a very common name. maybe it’s being disregarded. I don’t believe those are sponsored results.
It’s cuz DDG uses Bing search services, and since Bing is a M$ product, this suggestion would make sense
henlo
Not entirely unexpected, we know from sampling studies that while Google’s search results did get worse over the years, it got so slower than Bing, which is a huge portion of the search results of many alternative engines.

seems usable to me
I use Kagi and it’s usually better than ddg and google, but in this case not much. TBF your query kinda sucks tho. By searching “kate spellchecker add dictionary”, I found this.
What’s your distro? Have you tried searching on your package manager? That’s where dictionaries usually are.
DDG search is not good
DuckDuckGo slightly alters your search results based on your reginon and so I couldn’t reproduce this. Try advanced syntax with queries like +kate spellchecker or even “kate” spellchecker.
Which distro are you using and how did you install kate ? Usually to add dictionaries you just have to install hunspell packages
I’m not promoting DDG, I don’t use it either, just saying that they do provide a no ai version (currently at least)
The post is about the search results themselves. It is more a matter of Bing SEO.
huh, i knew they used bing under the hood but for some reason it didn’t occur to me that the promotions and ads would bleed through.
