      Does firefox do this automatically? Because I’ve never seen this junk everyone is talking about, and was wondering why. This might explain it.

          Thank you. I can’t believe I never thought of this.

          For those reading along:

          On Firefox for Android, go to Settings > Search > Default Search Engine > Add Search Engine

          For name, I use “Google Decrapified” For URL, I use “https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s

          I am told the “udm=14” part disables the AI bullshit.

          I get that. But I’ve never done that on my own, yet I still get similar results in my searches. Hence my question about firefox doing it automatically.

          *Just tried identical G searches on Firefox and Edge, and there’s definitely something going on filtering out all the garbage. The Edge search is downright unusable. Wow.
