Google, DuckDuckGo and Bing now all return the same shitty LLM-generated nonsense sites to most of my searches, and don't respect my literal search terms even when I put them in quotes.

I'm not ready to pay for search, yet.

Is there any alternative?

Brave Search is pretty nice

I enjoy using Brave Search. But it sucks for images for some reason. I use DDG for images.

Yeah, agree. I don’t see many LLM results but I can’t say I never see any.
