Are search engines garbage now, or is the internet at large garbage now? Could be both. We'll never know. (It's probably both)
@the_etrain I reluctantly signed up for kagi despite some red flags with their CEO, and the experience is much better than DDG, let alone the hellhole that google has become.

@ainmosni @the_etrain came here to say this. Kagi is the only search engine I know that isn't absolute ad-ridden AI-generated garbage.

But the internet is also worse.
