Some day I’ll grow tired enough of Bing-in-a-Duck-Mask to pay for Kagi or Metager, I guess…
Kagi is Google in a mask
Kagi is going AI too.
Yeah, I’m highly pissed off about that too. :(
At least there’s a “turn it off” option. But that doesn’t persist between cookie deletions. So it still pisses me off.
I don’t think there’s a way to turn off Google’s AI-in-search-results BS.
I’ve seen someone say there’s a way to turn off Google’s, but it’s easier to just scroll past than look into lol

May change later, I know it’s already changed before.
It’s easy. https://fedia.io/m/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world/t/1206247/Has-Google-Search-gotten-so-much-worse-in-the-last/comment/7332270#entry-comment-7332270
Brave you can turn off the AI bullshit but not on mobile if you search private by default and wipe cookies because it doesn’t remember your preference. At least for desktop it doesn’t have that shit
Yeah, but Brave has cryptocurrency shit built in which makes me less than enthused to use it.
Not familiar with that…like ads or something?
Just browsing the Wikipedia Page for Brave, it’s got built-in:
- Brave Wallet - a cryptocurrency wallet.
- Brave Swap - a cryptocurrency exchange service.
- Blockchain Domain Names support.
- IPFS support - Ok, IPFS isn’t cryptocurrency or blockchain shit, but it is blockchain-adjacent.
- And arguably the biggest cryptocurrency feature, Basic Attention Tokens - a cryptocurrency Brave users can earn by viewing ads in Brave.
Awh for fucks sake
I love how everyone is shoving this AI Assistant on all of us. But they forget that we can find an incompetent assistant anywhere, no need to make one for every website or device.
