This is a bold claim to make considering Google's search is almost entirely useless now. They've let AI-generated SEO trash completely destroy their search results and have turned a blind eye to it.
Thanks chat for restoring my faith in you.
Yes Google search is more useless now than when it was before spiders when it was simply a directory index.
Pot (Google) & Kettle (DDG), they're both shitty controlled opposition under the new Cable TV Death Grip. The Internet is enshitified, I guess we fucked up killing cable, the parasites simply followed along and made this shit too.
and how exactly is google opposition at all? lol
Yeah I don't foresee Google staying on top for Search unless they make drastic changes.
I hope so, let's get some semi-healthy competition going, maybe they'll even have to provide a better user experience instead of just seeing who can milk their users the most optimally. Probably not but one can dream.
Definitely not useless but it does make finding things 10, harder
