I made https://lite.duckduckgo.com/ my homepage. No AI and super fast loading. AI would be fine if it was opt-in. Shoving it into everything to see what works just makes people hate it. Looking at you MS.
For people trying to configure that in mozilla (I am trying to get away from it but for now :/)
-> Edit -> Settings -> Search
“Search Shortcuts” -> Add (to add a search engine)
“Search Engine Name”: DuckDuckGo Lite
“URL with %s in place of search term”: https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite/?q=%25s (this has to be =%s, lemmy keeps mutilating that to =%25s everytime I save my post)
“Keyword (optional)”: @ddgl (or pick whatever you like - it appears @ddg is hardcoded and gets refused)

It’s horrible for the environment too and wastes electricity. It’s fucked up that Google makes everything you search an AI search.
Well, Google is an evil megacorp, so not really surprising.
Damn didn’t know about this lite version, thanks, also gonna change it into it.
