      I went to search something up on Google Scholar the other day, and even that has some AI shit injected into it now.

      Can we please just nuke the internet and start from scratch?

        Maybe, if you don’t care about privacy or ethics. I don’t have any trouble using other engines and finding what I want.

        Sort of. I’ve switched to Kagi and I mostly like it. They clearly don’t have as much of the internet indexed but they have most of it and the stuff they do have is properly searchable.

        Google has more stuff but they hide the actual result under a pile of garbage.

          Sure to why I search, technical, industrial, etc. There really isn’t a rival. And honestly, scroll past the first half page, you get better results then any other engine. I’ve tried swapping to others, but it takes to long, or you just can’t find correct answers.
