Google says it has begun requiring users to turn on JavaScript in order to use Google Search, possibly in an effort to block certain SEO tools.

    This coincides with Google search getting worse and now including the AI slop.

    What’s the best alternative to Google these days?

      I use Kagi, it’s great (great results, no ads, no tracking, a lot of clever filtering tools) but it’s paid. Free, I would use Brave Search but I doesn’t give me as good results as Kagi.

      Edit: added links.

      I use SearxNG, found a good, reliable instance that is close to my location.

      I think that’s like asking what’s the best alternative to bread.

        The bread has mold and there’s weird stuff growing all over it.

        Not really. I haven’t used Google Search in close to a decade.
