I searched “fuck does typing fuck at the beginning of a google search get rid of the Ai” and the top result was the AI overview saying you can get rid of it with “a well placed F-bomb.”

I think Google got rid of that trick already.

They'll do anything besides changing search engines. It's a one time setting in most browsers.

Duck duck go doesn't seem to have recent Reddit results. And I'm not paying a monthly subscription. Seems like most others use Google's indexing. You have a suggestion for a free non Google based search engine that indexs Reddit?

Maven@lemmy.world · 22 pts · 1y

The reason they don't include reddit is because of the same licensing thing that caused all the reddit apps to get shut down and helped boost Lemmy.

The best non-google version that still gives you the recent reddit ones would be SearXNG and that's because it's a search aggregate tool that searching on Google and DDG and so on for you and then gives you the best results.

Edit: it's also self-hostable if you'd prefer that

Given the current state of Reddit, I would count that as a feature.

For general stuff, yeah, but there's a lot of discussion that still isn't happening anywhere else.

Yeah, they said that like it's a bad thing.

Aw, gee, I won't have pages of puns before I reach an actual discussion? Darn.

And most recent content is infested with LLM bots. It's like using ChatGPT with extra steps.

Yea im pretty ok with duck duck, UNLESS I am specifically looking for a smeddit answer, thats when I pull up evoogle.

Does changing search engines give them the satisfaction of cursing at a bad engine to make it work better?

Duck duck go makes it optional to futz with ai

aeronmelon@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Yeah…. They keep re-optioning it after a few weeks every time I completely disable it.

I simply deny duckduckgo the use of javascript. Works great unless you need image results.

Check out the Kagi search engine, paid for, but well worth it.
