Since Google has basically just turned into an advertising engine I’ve used their services less and less. I’m also not fond of the way they censor things, even when I agree with the ideology, I don’t think a mega corporation should be deciding what people are allowed to speak. Gives me a creepy dystopian vibe.

Because I'm never logged into Google and use a VPN their search-engine just puts me into infinite captcha loop anyway now. Can't even use Google if I want to. They've basically banned anonymous use.

Is there anything that's good as Google was a few years ago? And what about Google Images (including image search)? It seems that's gotten way less reliable over the last few years. ~Strawberry

The starting point of the internet has changed over the years. And will keep changing. From the famous startpagina.nl in the Netherlands. To hyves. To Facebook. To Google. To ChatGPT. And now maybe the fediverse for some people?
