Headline is wrong. Google pulled support for some older browsers off it's sites I guess?

Just change yor search engine...

The thing about older browsers is that they don’t support new cryptography which is required by pretty much all modern websites. For some reason Google kept this legacy version of their Search going (probably forgot it existed) but now the only alternative are search engine frontends tailored specifically to obsolete hardware (which thankfully exist thanks to retro community).

Use http://frogfind.de/ or https://wiby.org/ to search using old browsers.

I still remember there was a reddit post years ago, asking if anyone else noticed that porn hub had cut support for the wii-u browser. Everyone was like wtf? Who watches porn hub on wii-u?

If I remember he was poor and only had a wii-u and a phone and the web interface for porn hub on wii-u was superior to them.
