I stick with DuckDuckGo, it stays as it is. Every time I go to Google I see they are messing with the experience, making it easier to end up on sponsored content and harder to just get what you need. Not so with DuckDuckGo.

I don’t care about either, just want better search back. Does anyone remember when you could search for a specific product or part and the first link was to the manufacturer? Now you have to sort through sponsored content, various retailers, link spam, video reviews (usually made by bots), and social media posts to get to the manufacturers website.

While DDG uses Bing’s results, I wonder how much the two will diverge in terms of results as MS incorporates more AI bullshit in their search, if that will creep into DDG’s results as well?

Yes, it’s clear Google search is broken. Even searching for things you know exist may not show up in the search results no matter how specific you are.

I blame ads. Because you could make money by presenting a fake Website filled with ads and shit,we are here now
