                @Stellar @ocean What alternatives? The sites purporting to be are just scraping and repackaging Google and Bing. They do not have their own indices.

                  @ocean@raru.re
                  okay theres a difference between worse on purpose, and they arent actively trying to make it better

                  the latter is still bad, competition would remedy it

                  but ya know lets not twist words

                          @ocean Search "ten blue links" and follow the instructions for making your default browser google-web. The udf=14? tag improves results significantly. Check my syntax on that...

                              @ocean I guess we need to skip straight to page 2 of Google search results (but mind the hidden bodies)

                                    @mark @ocean Except Betamax was better than VHS, and there's no good reason why we're not all carrying phones by Palm Pilot. The point isn't that Google is the best search service; It's that they've achieved such market dominance that they can still get away with being profitably bad.

                                    @msbellows @mark @ocean As luck would have it, our internet search player is compatible with both Google and Bing, also a myriad of other “formats” that would not contain AI.
