How I Made Google’s “Web” View My Default Search
tedium.co
Forget AI. Google just created a version of its search engine free of the extra junk it has added over the past decade-plus. You just need one URL parameter.

The results are fascinating. It’s essentially Google, minus the crap. No parsing of the information in the results. No surfacing metadata like address or link info. No knowledge panels, but also, no ads. It looks like the Google we learned to love in the early 2000s, buried under the “More” menu like lots of other old things Google once did more to emphasize, like Google Books.

    or… use an alternative. Seriously, google is getting worse. Its not that hard to beat now. I use DuckDuckGo (mainly just bc I like the UI, and it’s not google)

    The company has essentially bet that you’ll be better off with a pre-parsed guess produced by its AI engine.
