yeah except things aren't the first result on Google anymore

I haven't fully switched away yet, and when I'm "just doing a quick search" on something I just use the address bar in Chrome sometimes. I did this a few times yesterday on several different topics, and the results were fucking useless. searched the exact same terms with duck duck go, and oh what do you know I found exactly what I was looking for

stop using google

You do know that Chrome is Google, don't you?

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 days ago

yes that's why I gave an example of using it and it being terrible...

Even with duck duck go and a plugin to block websites from the search results I still spend litteral hours sifting through all the bullshit.
