Implicit in this article is the idea that you have to use Google, and that Google Search equals “the web”. I’ll be the boring nerd, I guess, who has to be the one to say there are many other search engines out there.
If you don’t like Google (I don’t), or don’t like where they are moving their products (I don’t) — please use a competing search engine.
I’ve used DuckDuckGo for years and I don’t miss anything about Google. There are plenty of other good search engines out there too.
It’s not particularly difficult to switch away and get an experience more to your liking, so it’s a bit baffling when Google Search product decisions are equated with burying the web alive. Just don’t use it!
