De-googlify your mental apparatus😁
Too many sentence fragments. Stopped reading when I realized it wasn’t writing.
Google search is easy to change, other services not so much.
Please give it a try to:
- https://www.ecosia.org/
- https://duckduckgo.com/
- https://www.qwant.com/
- https://search.brave.com/
- https://www.startpage.com/
And there are others I’m pretty sure one of them will fit your needs
I’ve tried switching before, but always found I ultimately preferred Google’s search results.
But if Google’s going to stop showing me search results… that makes things easier. 😬
I have finally moves over to Kagi, and I’m really liking it, give it a try
Even DDG returns a lot of AI generated sites though
Ddg has a noai site. Just go to noai.duckduckgo.com and bam no more ai results. If a ai site does gets through you can ban that site from your results and you won’t see them again.
https://noai.duckduckgo.com/ is marginally better in my experience. The filtering works pretty well for images at least !

Go fuck yourself google. I could not put it more nicely, sorry.
And the people who currently say “I thought google(app) is the internet?” will love it.
Idiocracy gets more and more just a documentary every day.
Idiocracy isn’t a documentary, those people were just stupid.
This is malicious
It always takes two though. One being malicious and one not noticing it or choosing to ignore it. The result is sadly the same.
The consumers were stupid but “Brawno, it’s got what plants crave” was malicious. A drink company actively destroying what little agriculture the planet had left just to sell their drinks.
They also weren’t willfully ignorant. There was a problem, and they put the smartest person they could find in charge of fixing it.
I use AI to search a topic I somewhat understand but not 100%. It gives answers that look convincing but there are multiple details that I know to be wrong. So what else is wrong? Search is just as bad with mostly AI generated websites filling the results. Is the internet already dead?
Pretty much. I’m down to self-hosting all my services, feeding my information with what little RSS driven info is out there and a few podcasts.
The rest of the time I spend either outside, reading or in Lemmy feeding my hate 🤣
