Summary:

In the video, Mrwhosetheboss argues that Google Search has become worse. He believes that Google has prioritized sponsored links and shopping ads over organic search results. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find the information you are looking for on Google. He also criticizes Google for its use of generative AI, which he believes is not accurate and could eventually replace the need to visit other websites.

I really like searx so far. My only problem with it I've had is that instances keep going down. Obviously one can't be too upset about a free service that's not being monetized, but it's still kind of frustrating to have to reconfigure it and switch all my browsers' default searches to a new instance.
