many channels pretend to be human-made, but are just AI slop.

It's been hard to find good websites in top results of search engines. A lot of them are very well SEO tuned AI slop.

Especially on Duck Duck Go. Ugh. It's so bad sometimes. You search for a topic and the first page is all blog style websites with rambling, garbage A.I. text.

I really need to switch to Kagi, but it's American so I don't want to give them money.

Mojeek and Ecosia are building their own index, and then you don't need to subscribe to a service that's all-in on AI

I'm not really against AI (specifically text-based GenAI), but AI does change the reality of using the internet. I need to be able to promote trustworthy domains in my search results and accumulate such a list over years.

Brave search technically has such a feature, but firstly the owner is a homophobe, and secondly the feature isn't really as power-user oriented as I'd like.
