When I first saw this, I thought it was attempting to be its own engine, and thus subject to becoming a verb: no longer "just google it" but rather "just fuck it"

However, having thought about this further I now wonder what the range is of curse words that Google exempts from ad placement. The 7 words you can't say on TV? Or do the advertisers themselves choose the opt-out words?

There's also udm14 for just appending &udm14 to the end of search results to hide AI summaries.

Anyone else using Kagi? I just stared and am liking it so far. My "search" query volume has gone down 50x since chatGPT does a lot of my searching for me, but if I'm looking for a link a traditional search engine is still useful. (not a sponsor)

Yeah I'm a fan except for when I'm looking for things to buy or comparisons of products,which I suspect is less a Kagi issue and more the fact that it is trying to correct for spam and advertorial which unfortunately comprises most of that content online.

A little feedback: I would use this but I don't really want to open a website with that domain on on my corporate network. Maybe a second domain?

Though I fully approve the posted link, I do something similar in a different way; maybe it will work for you:

0. use firefox and ublock origin to take care of the ads

1. (re)enable custom search urls[0]

2. add https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s as such a custom search url

Steps 1 & 2 avoid the AI spam on default google by telling it to use the "web" search context ("udm=14").

You have to name your search url, so I call mine Plain Old Google, or POG for short.

At first I thought of this as a hilarious website that just makes a point.

But ... this is surprisingly useful and google looks way better this way.

Doesn't this affect the search results though?

Nice.

I tested by searching for “Ay.”

Leaving it to the reader to guess the assembled search query ;)
