For now it looks like you might be able to tack something into the search query to get the web results directly, which means you could use browser plugins to bypass the crap.

My guess is that Google is watching for that and will axe this feature if they see "too many" people bypassing their LLM bullshit.

@beeoproblem I feel like I’m taking crazy pills, what is even happening to the internet

@beeoproblem Good grief. You can't compare different sites to check for info accuracy. That sucks big time.

@beeoproblem This is the point where I shill Kagi. Yes, it's paid, but it really is quite good. Try the free trial and honestly see for yourself. Best search engine around that I've found. And is actually a search engine.

@beeoproblem Nice burn at the end.

@beeoproblem working on the in-house cloud set up so I can tell Google photos to go tuck themselves.

@beeoproblem this rolled out to me in the past few days and I absolutely loathe it. I think I really do need to start trying DuckDuckGo or something

@beeoproblem the duck

@beeoproblem DuckDuckGo is pretty great - I’ve been using it as my default for about a year
