Been trying to get away from DuckDuckGo because of their support of “AI” stuff, but come on, one of these isn’t even in English, and that’s what I have my language set to.

im guessing op is aware that you can turn ai off, but generally opposed to using duckduckgo since they are generally a pro ai company
That’s my take as well. You can also remove AI results from Google by adding the &udm=14 string to force web results only, but it doesn’t absolve them of blame for how much they push AI. DDG deserves equal criticism.
It’s like old Reddit. Sure it still exists, but it only gets worse and worse as they double down on the version everyone hates until the majority don’t even know there’s another option. And there’s no guarantee they keep supporting the option that makes them less money.
