Google is making its Search more centred around AI, turning it into a conversation.

Besides being a worse experience, the websites from which it sources its information are losing all traffic and recognition.

Recommend a list of alternatives:

  • Kagi - Paid but better experience than Google
  • Ecosia - Similar experience while supporting a good cause
  • Qwant - Increasingly unique results and building a EU-first index
  • DuckDuckGo - Privacy-focused search, but quality of results may vary

How's that?

Last time I checked, Ecosia and DuckDuckGo both use the Microsoft Bing index, just one of them promises to plant trees if only if you click on ads

    Last I heard like 6 months ago microsoft stopped selling Bing api access to other compaines, so I think Ecosia is just google now
