[–] Towerism@beehaw.org 10 points 3 years ago (1 child) Ever since I’ve switched to DuckDuckGo, my searching experience has been way better. Google’s new mobile experience is absolute garbage. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] rho50@lemmy.nz 1 point 3 years ago IIRC DuckDuckGo wasn't a fan of the Australian media bargaining bill either. I suspect they will also deindex news sites in Canada should amendments not be made. I haven't seen the Canadian one and this is honestly the first I've heard of it, but the idea that a referrer has to pay a news website for directing traffic to them is ludicrous to me. permalink fedilink source parent
