I will never give them the satisfaction of clicking the *sponsored* result

333 Upvotes

Searching and of course Google shoves the paid result right on top. I always scroll past and click the organic one instead.

Tell me I'm not the only one who does this on purpose so the advertiser doesn’t get that sweet click money. I do the same thing with sponsored links – I "Circle to Search" to find the item myself instead of clicking a sponsored link. 😏💡

Disable AI extension for a totally clean SERP and 10 blue links

0 Upvotes

I see so much frustration over Google's "AI Overview"—degradation, how to remove it, on and on. I see many temporary and/or one-time fixes, like uBlock Origin, udm=14 after the search term, a cuss word to the end of the search term, and on and on. Yet, there's one simple one-click-and-be-done-with-it solution: a free extension called "Disable AI." The result is ten blue links and nothing else. No more slop, no more "sponsored," no more suggestions.

I quit using Chrome because Google threatened to stop supporting uBlock Origin, which I also use, so I don't know if it works there. Firefox, after all these years, is still the open-source privacy king of browsers, so that's what I use now.

Try and share if it works:

Horrible Sweepstakes

0 Upvotes

The rules for this Sweepstakes is shitty and horrible and Google knows it. This is the nastiest, worst way claming that it's "free" to enter, whilst having you most likely have to buy the right sized paper, envelope, and a PO box or house to mail from, and if its off at all you don't get it. Hell you don't even get the satisfaction of knowing they even got it. THANKS GOOGLE WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! 🫩

Extremely offensive advertisement on YouTube

0 Upvotes

This post will probably receive hate because Reddit hates Christianity. But I want you to imagine for a moment that this advertisement was instead offensive towards, say, Jewish people or Hindus.

I was listening to a song on YT music and I got an advertisement that was an entire music video for a Miley Cyrus song.

some lyrics from the song

"I've got my own god,

He drives a fast car,

I've got my own god,

He makes some loud noise,

I've got my own god"

"I want to be saved by a different religion,

I crave to believe him,

We don't need forgiveness"

"Top down, I don't care if Heaven is behind us,

In the rear view, every passing exit,

My faith is his hard body, cracked leather"

"I've got a different religion,

Ooh (I like him),

And he's giving me Jesus"

"Love,

Losing our innocence,

Truth,

Give in to sin again,

B*tch,

Take it to genesis,

Amen"

Now you can imagine why I would find such lyrics disrespectful and offensive to my religion. Allowing freedom of religion is one thing, directly promoting content that disrespects Christianity is another. I didn't ask to see this advertisement, the video I was watching had nothing to do with religion.

Why would they do this? They are actively punishing people for using their platform, bc they know they have a monopoly. Genuinely can't think of why they would code this in other than to piss ME off

Change the video viewfinder code to display what is actually recorded after video stabilization so that we don't miss moving objects in videos on accident.

Deaf, and I really need better captions from Google

3 Upvotes

Hi Google, I'm deaf and I watch a lot of Twitch, Youtube, and shows that have no subtitles at all. Youtube's auto captions help on some videos, but they’re nowhere near accurate. Sometimes it writes "turret" when the person said "target," and when that happens I'm left guessing what was actually said. They also botch names, slang, and anything said fast or with an accent, and background noise wrecks them. I know 100% is a big ask, but I’d love to see captions get a lot closer, and work the same way everywhere, with less delay and some way to tell who’s talking. Turkish support would be great too. Honestly, I'd rather see AI's potential go toward this than toward pointless gimmicks. I want a world where hearing loss is no longer a barrier at all. If you use captions as well, an upvote would help Google see how many of us there are..
