The Enshittification continues. Slightly better than Google because you can at least turn it off, but still on by default! Turn that shit off if you use DDG!
Unironically, I've been getting better search results from Yandex since this AI dogshit started picking up steam. I'm contemplating switching over full time.
It's good for finding shit that does not appear on Google at all, but it also finds other super weird shit too. To be fair, google also shows me weird religious websites and state department propaganda journal articles seemingly at random on unrelated results.
