If only there were a way to stop using Google. Alas…
This has got to be ragebait.
Stop using Screwgle
bonus: most of these (and some of the other suggestions on this thread, like SearXNG) protect your privacy better than Google does
Not google, but https://noai.duckduckgo.com/
Regular ddg also just has a setting where you can turn it off. Is this different?
Yep, it’s switched off by default. I like to share this, because I can send it to non-techy people and they instantly have a working search engine, without fiddling with settings.
You don’t need to turn it off each time you clear your cookies.
i use it because i use a browser extension that creates temporary throwaway containers replacing all “No Container” to keep site cookies isolated intelligently
Duck duck go
You can already do this. Just append -ai to the end of the search
You can edit your browsers default Google search URL pattern to just always have -ai at the end.
You can also edit the search url to default to the web tab, which only shows link results
SearXNG will not include AI overviews
SearXNG is the single best experience you can get for a search engine imo.
Except when only search result come from mwmbl and yacy because other are banned/captcha/tieout.
I find duckduckgo’s results more useful/reliable and you absolutely can disable the ai.

There must be a way because it no longer appears for me on my phone, but still pops up if I use another device I don’t use much for browsing, like my PC. IDK how I managed to turn it off tho. Maybe it just got sick of me swearing at it.
There is. Still works. It redirects from All to Web tab.
