When I think about how the old, good internet turned into the enshitternet, I imagine a series of small compromises, each seemingly reasonable at the time, each contributing to a cultural norm of making good things worse, and worse, and worse.

    I just read the article. I’m stunned.

    I’ve noticed in the past year or so that duckduckgo would return all results of one brand or similar websites no matter what general term I add.

    I know ddg send query to search engines but I didn’t know google was the culprit. I thought ddg sucks.

    Kagi sounds good. I’ll definitely give it a shot. Hopefully it’ll not get acquired by google or microsoft.
