Tired of duckduckgo using MSN’s amp thing for news or blocking some websites, and it’s now adding shit AI too. Don’t want to spend any money running a searxng instance for the time being and most public instances are too overwhelmed.
Any suggestions? Doesn’t need to be perfect, just not too annoying.
I use DuckDuckGo. AI isn’t bad inherently, just the proprietary, censored, corporate stuff. DuckDuckGo’s AI isn’t forced on you, is private, open weights, and less censored than the main players.
It used unethically collected databases, you seemed to miss that on your list.
