I suspect that this is the direct result of AI generated content just overwhelming any real content.

I tried ddg, google, bing, quant, and none of them really help me find information I want these days.

Perplexity seems to work but I don’t like the idea of AI giving me “facts” since they are mostly based on other AI posts

ETA: someone suggested SearXNG and after using it a bit it seems to be much better compared to ddg and the rest.

have you tried the duck assist thing yet?

If you’re trying to talk to the search engine more like a chat assistant, that sort of response might be what you’re looking for.

Fuck Duck Assist all my homies hate Duck Assist and I keep having to turn it back off again.

Whoever made it should get cancer and not have their children show up or call them back.

I just saw it for the first time today, it seems to mostly quote incredible sources rather than amalgamating responses.

I’m sorry I hurt your feelings and made you want to defend an LLM that approves copy pasted wikipedia snippets, but maybe you should go eat some ass?
