TechSpotDuckDuckGo made sunglasses that do absolutely nothing, and they sold outDuckDuckGo's latest product is a pair of ordinary sunglasses, with no added features such as video recording or generative AI integration. Part marketing campaign and part wearable...
DuckDuckGo should apply this lesson to their search engine!
DuckDuckGoDuckDuckGo No-AI: Private Search Without AIDuckDuckGo private search with all AI features turned off. The classic results you expect. Always private.Replying to @notabot@piefed.social

DuckDuckGo (plus AI) enjoys default search engine status on a lot of browsers, and many of them make it difficult to set a custom one (like NoAI). Especially mobile browsers, and apparently even Safari makes it a pain.
(Edited to clarify what I meant by default)

Idk about Chrome and the other Chrorium based ones but should be as simple, if not, then you should first think about using a better browser
