Duckduckgo, on the other hand …
Wtf, confirmed. Ask about any person, any president on if they have dementia or not and it’ll answer
Ask about trump and it refused to interact, just dumps a search results window with funnily enough the first result being a page about how Google is censoring this
Dimensia Donny seems like a nickname that could fit
Dinky Dick Dimensia Don
Diddles Diminutive Daughters
How about “Donnie Dementia”?
Seems to work.
Lol, they can’t pull everything.
So you’re saying that we should do more AI searches for “Trump Dementia”
… and use variations of it like … “Trump old losing his mind”, “Trump old senile”, “Trump dementia don”, “Donny Dementia”, “Ding Dong Dementia Donny Trump”
Same for searching: “did Elon Musk make a nazi salute?” Only got a response when I replaced “nazi salute” with “offensive gesture”. Ok google
fuck me. i don’t know why people still use google search; it was shit even before all this. jumped ship years ago.
Good thing I stopped using google a long time ago.
The whole value in searching is to get me to primary sources in a reasonably efficient way. Everything about AI is inserting extra middle men. I just don’t understand how anyone tolerates it.
Google AI has dementia
Google is evil.
Ok, so don’t look for an AI response? Sure, Google censoring results is shit, google NOT censoring results about the same query about Biden is even shittier, but you still get search results about the question.
Kagi,brave, startpage, ddg, are good to go. Trump def has dementia
I’ve been a Kagi user for over a year and I usually hate AI summaries. Though I must say I love how Kagi has implemented them as it gives sources where it found the info so you can dig deeper and see if what it said was actually correct.
Their AI is pretty good, both assistant and search summaries. Been using it extensively as it actually provides correct and objective information (at least more often than others). It is also privacy-first, so you don’t get those annoying personality shifts as with like GPT.
I use mojeek, and startpage sometimes. Ddg is too influenced now, they do the same stuff Google does. Brave is run by people who hate LGBT people so I can’t support them in good conscience.
The post is likely referring to a long-standing controversy around Brendan Eich, the founder and CEO of Brave (the browser and search engine company). In 2008, Eich donated $1,000 to support California's Proposition 8, a ballot measure that banned same-sex marriage (later overturned by courts). This came to light in 2014 when he was briefly appointed CEO of Mozilla, leading to widespread backlash from employees, users, and activists who viewed it as anti-LGBTQ+. Eich resigned from Mozilla after just 11 days amid the outcry, expressing regret for causing pain but not fully recanting his views. Some people, including in the LGBTQ+ community and allies, continue to avoid or criticize Brave on these grounds, seeing it as support for leadership with historically discriminatory stances. This isn't a "new" issue in 2025—it's tied to events from over a decade ago—but it persists in discussions about ethical tech choices. Brave has faced other unrelated controversies (e.g., ad practices), but this one specifically relates to anti-LGBT perceptions.

well fuck! brave is the one browser that fits all my needs.
This is probably payback for letting them off the hook on the monopoly suits. Expect more “payback” as they manipulate the narrative.
kagi is the best search engine right now. hands down. google can suck it.
There really has not been a better time than the late 90s to launch a new better search engine and supplant google
Kagi does provide a good experience but it can never replace the free search engines. It relies pretty heavily on Google’s search API it just allows you to massage the results with tools Google took away.
Kagi uses Bing as its primary search index AFAIK, so no Google search API there.
That said, it does run entirely on Google Cloud Services, which I personally find ironic.
So what your saying is it doesn’t rely on just one but two massive corps to actually deliver it’s product which is ment to be an alterative to those very products?
Kek
lmfao. Google isn’t the only search engine.
This isn’t about what you use, it’s about what the majority of the voting public uses and the influence on them.
Why would anyone need to search that tbh
