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.

Well shit...
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?
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
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.
