  Not OP. I’ve been using Ecosia for years and was glad they didn’t do the AI summary shit so far… But a few days ago I got an AI summary on Ecosia as well. I fear they’re also hopping on this train and in that case I’ll look for another search engine.

    As far as I know they are using Bing. They’ve started building their own search index last year in a partnership with Qwant.
