Google used to be like “we have found 10 quadrillion websites with your term” and you could click page 173 and it would give you the list for as many times as you wanted to click
Then they went to giving you several pages but if you clicked past page two they would be like hahaha psych there are actually only two pages of results for “starcraft two newbie tips”
Now I’ll search for specific phrases I know I read somewhere and I’ll get like, three god damn results.
Which makes this even more annoying. Like you have good chunk of the world using your browser with ads, but you still want even more and are still taking these types of scummy actions.
I doubt most people use an adblocker.
Anyone who’s aware of these issues or cares about them really should have been smart enough to switch to Firefox a long time ago.
Must be enough to make big companies angry
I use duck duck go. The browser on my phone even auto opts out of cookies
You can also do that with Firefox on your computer.
It’s not in settings, but you can easily google the instructions.
Duck duck go also runs it’s own vpn which is great if you can’t root your phone.
You can use system-wide VPNs on Android without root
DuckDuckGo is also so much better for search results since Google made theirs shit.
I can find websites pretty easy on DuckDuckGo which just don’t exist on Google.
damn google has really gotten shit then. I used to avoid duckduckgo because of how much better google was.

Really? On the entire internet? Three results?
It’s just disrespectful and insulting

I think they’re taking aim at people who use an adblocker because it’s simple and won’t bother if they make it harder than installing an extension.
