And by “not sucking” I mean: It doesn’t show you results missing a search term. It has simple and functional Boolean logic. It doesn’t assume = bullshit what you meant. It doesn’t try to answer questions by itself. It is either language-agnostic or respects the language options of your browser. It doesn’t show you “AI snippets” or whatever. It doesn’t take your location into account, unless you explicitly say so. You don’t need AI for that dammit.
