As if Google were still trustworthy

Google is just a search engine, the sites you find with it may or may not be trustworthy.

...unless you use their AI crap, idk, I haven't used Google for years.

Can you tell me what search engine you have been using, I have tried duck duck go but more of the same.

Searxng! You can self-host it, but I just use a public instance, there are tons you can find out there. You can also install a firefox extension^1^ to be able to use it directly as your default search engine :)

^1^ you don't need to download an extension, you can just go to a site, right click on the address bar and add it to firefox/librewolf as a custom search engine, as per these instructions.

My favourite's been Startpage so far, because (IIRC) DDG just uses Bing's results (probably) more privately.
