Capitalism cannot allow good. Good is not profitable. We must extract, squeeze, enshittify until the very end.
I’d argue ddg is good and they area product of capatalism. Nobody is forcing you to use google
DDG is just Bing in disguise. It's nowhere near as good as google used to be back in last century.
I use it and I have no problems at all. Would say it’s on the same level, but the ai searches are actual relevant and tasteful unlike google
Anyone using ai searches is automatically un trustable to me. Ive never once needed it and ive corrected many stupid people asking ai things and suddenly thinking they are smart on a subject that I'm actually knowledgeable in because I actually read and use my brain.
Kagi is maybe one aspect of capitalism that works. I pay, I get good product. I know it has a couple bad things (possible Russian ties) but yeah
