ok i think i will officially drop duck duck go as my search engine.
i always kept the ai features off. i even checked them some months ago because i noticed some of the feature's promo text showed up on top of my searches so i can confidently say i had them turned off.
well, they're back on today.
so if anyone has been using duck duck like me as opposed to google and as means to stay away from ai; they are clearly enforcing it at this point behind our backs. fuck that.

Recently switched from Chrome to Firefox, and omg y'all, I'm a believer now. I was all bought into the Google ecosystem (pixel phone, Google nest at one point, Google drive junkie), but their shit has been getting worse and worse in recent years. Firefox is great, it loves me, it tucks me into bed at night and gives me a goodnight kiss. Firefox has ad block! IN MOBILE! FIREFOX MOBILE HAS AD BLOCK! And it'll let YouTube play in the background in a tab without all the horrible UI shit Google is adding to YouTube, for free, guys this is so great, you can import passwords and bookmarks, it does everything Chrome does, and it does everything you wish Chrome did. AND it won't track you or sell your data.
I also have switched to majority Duck Duck Go, guys it's awesome, all of the awful UI and ad shit that Google has added in recent years is gone, it's like when Google the search engine was good.
Firefox + ublock origin + duck duck go, best trio since neopolitan ice cream

I'm trying out duck duck go for a couple days to see how it feels, and wanted to do a comparison search against google to see the difference. Only search I could come up with was "Spock" lol
I feel like I'm getting a lot more options from duck duck go! Which is kinda cool. Glad memory alpha turns up for both.

Day 15 - Armed with Duck Duck Go and UBlock Origin, the Firefox is here to protect.
Had an itch to draw Firefox as an anthro. SO I DID IT. Also, that duck be cute. Proud of that one.

ok but how am i supposed to stop using google when the alternatives suck so bad
i switched to qwant but if i do a search and then click on the news tab it tells me there's no news items (this is usually when i'm 100% certain there is bc i just searched a news story i heard on the radio). i can't search by date there (i use that feature of google's search constantly). there is a drop-down where you can choose freshness but it's not very exact
i had a similar experience trying to use duck duck go
i basically end up re-running all my searches on google anyway and that's really not helpful for what i'm trying to do here

how to access the dark web
⦾ first, get an antivirus (you can use Avast which is free if you're broke, it actually works super good)
⦾ then, get a VPN. you can choose which location hackers see you at, for example, you can set it to australia or somethin
⦾ next, cover up your camera with a piece of tape
⦾ google tor browser and download tor. on safari or chrome, dark web links don't show, but on tor, it does.
⦾ go on tor, activate all your protection, and search up the hidden wiki
⦾ when you click on it, you can find a list of the best dark web links, its like an encyclopedia, almost. they are all safe and won't do anything sketchy to your computer. you can click on these links
⦾ if you want more links, search ON TOR best dark web links or something like that

I don't know if Paramount was just too cheap to pay Google, but regardless, I appreciate the Duck Duck Go mention in the recent SNW episode.

Thank you duck duck go for understanding that the query, "sport anime with the titties," was enfact asking for Keijo!.
Google was remarkably unhelpful and gave me nothing but hentai.

I deleted the youtube app from my phone and now only use it in the duck duck go browser. now i get to see the raw, unpersonalised youtube algorithm. Its pretty bad.
Firstly, it hurts just to look at, the thumbnails are all very ugly. Secondly, youtube seems to have a very strong preferance towards right-wing conservative political content. They also seem to favour clickbait thumbnails that objectify women. Theres also a lot of bodyshaming :/
