Comment on I Don’t Want To Spend My One Wild And Precious Life Dealing With Google’s AI Search - Aftermath
TheTetrapod@lemmy.world 5 months agoI tried to switch my primary search engine on Firefox to DDG yesterday when I heard the news. 3 searches later, I switched back. I don’t like Google, but damned if I’m not used to it.

If you use ddg you can redirect any search to google by adding a space abs !g to the end of the search term.
Annoyingly, but works on the cases where google does better.
