There’s plenty of other search engines these days. Try some until you find the one that fits for you.
I left Google long ago.
Duckduckgo isn’t much better these days.
They used to be OK, but now are going woke.
cannot get into yandex
But when brought up the FR devotees of BIG BIG BIG Tech explained "SHUT UP."
I got it to work.
Great site
Yandex! dont forget the exclamation point
:-)
I put ‘pretty women’ into google, and I got posters and screen shots from the “Pretty Woman’ movie and a pic of Roy Orbison.
He’s there in part because he backs the agenda, no doubt—but he’s not the cause of the agenda.
I didn’t get that at all. Google image searches on ‘Kids play ideas’ and just ‘kids’ are about half and half, actually a little more weighted toward Caucasian.
“French Military Victories”
“Did you mean French military defeats?”
Try the Yandex! it is fast and accurate
I noticed in 2006 the search results were becoming more curated. Prior to then, I could search an odd combination of words and find some rare results that were just what I needed.
Finding rare research papers were a big help. Now the same type of search results the same four or five “preferred” sources. In medicine, everything is NIH, CDC, FDA, Johns Hopkins, etc. All point to the same few research papers. This only got worse after Covid hit.
yep
Just gave it try, pretty good!
It actually has conservative source unlike Google who is filled with NBC, CBS, NPR, MSNBC etc.
The trick that works a lot of the time:
1. Do the search. Get the leftist garbage results.
2. Look for two or three keywords (adjectives) where the leftist results show their bias.
3. Redo the search adding -adjective one -adjective two
4. Add new leftist adjectives as needed
It seems to me that the minus sign used to work a lot better than it does now.
Google used to be a good search engine into Free Republic. If I remembered an obscure article from a few years ago I could search for the topic and freerepublic.com. In the past couple of years it’s like they blacklisted us.
I used to do that too, and I could always find old posts. Not anymore.
When a monopoly gets established abuses happen. If you’ve ever played the game you should know that.
When they gave it to so called “AI” with a voice.
Completely agree.
I have started using Microsoft Bing for my first search.
Google for second search, if I cannot find the info I need on Bing.
Google often starts with 5-10 paid links to the words I am searching.
Completely ridiculous.
Bing is using AI...
I often get the info I need on my first click on Bing.
