It’s getting a bit ridiculous out here. I’m using DuckDuckGo but since it aggregates its search from other sources, it’s also gotten bad recently. Is there a search out there that blocks domains that spam AI? Extra points if there’s something like Ublock Origin that filters things based on a community-made list.
Edit: I’m aware of Kagi but it’s pretty expensive and I’m not a fan that they, too, host their own AI tools.
Have you given Kagi an actual shake? If you are not interested in saving preferences longer term, you can keep cycling through free accounts. Now more than ever, it is a breath of fresh air. If I want a quick AI answer without scrolling through some ad-ridden web page, I just put a “?” at the end of my query. If not, I have no AI garbage on my results.
