Edit:
The poll stopped me in my tracks but it’s actually even worse.
It should not take this long to get to imdb
Edit2: didn’t even realize it thinks I’ll “love it” based on things I look up. I don’t think I’d like it.
Edit³: IMDb was the example I used without thinking. I’m aware that there’s a link to it in the top card. It’s the other web results that I don’t already know about that I’d like to see. I now know there’s a hidden “web” tab. There’s also https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=example` but it’s still mildly infuriating that you have to know about these things to get the basic results we expected for years.
Damn. I switched to DDG like well over a year ago and thought I was just kind of putting up with it for the sake of privacy. Turns out I didn’t know how good I have it
Exactly. I’ve been using DDG for years now and when I have to use Google search for whatever reason, I am quickly reminded how crap ggl is.
Did it spoil the movie in the suggested questions 💀

Here’s duckduckgo result for comparison
Here is Kagi. It is customizable, so it will look different for everyone.
If anyone still wants to use google without this, you can use this url, replacing ‘%s’ with your search
https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14
I know this won’t be the answer people want, but to be perfectly frank if I know I want the IMDb page for a movie, I put IMDb in the query. It will put the page you want right at the top, none of that extra shit, and it will even probably predict what you’re typing before you finish.
separately, imdb itself has been enshittified enough that, most times, i don’t want the imdb page as a search result.
Anyone know good alternatives?
Your daily reminder that DDG also has an infinite scroll option under its settings. (Seriously, DDG’s Settings menu is so good.}
Dunno what is wrong with you guys, but IMDB is on the first page for me, with no scrolling. But I don’t use my phone like a plebeian.
