I suspect that this is the direct result of AI generated content just overwhelming any real content.

I tried ddg, google, bing, quant, and none of them really help me find information I want these days.

Perplexity seems to work but I don't like the idea of AI giving me "facts" since they are mostly based on other AI posts

ETA: someone suggested SearXNG and after using it a bit it seems to be much better compared to ddg and the rest.

Kagi is working very well for me! and honestly i like that it's a paid service.

Thank you. I needed this. The "free" search engines have tainted my experience of this world. Frankly, I hate it here. I'm ready for the inevitable "Apocalypse"/" Alien invasion" that stops the absolute incompetence that permeates our society. Whether you understand it or not, I beseach upon you my blessings, may your days provide success in your endeavores, and bountiful returns to your entire home. Bless you for sharing.

Search engines make you yearn for the destruction of the human race...?

When you have no other problems, the question of search engines is the biggest issues in your life

And naturally, the solution to your biggest issue is always to destroy everything and everybody. ^^'
