It's even worse than that, first Google will bug you to use Chrome, then bug you to login, then after your search the browser will pop up "Google would like to use your current location". And then the first half-page of results are ads. And half of the actual results are AI slop and a helpful AI summary of the slop. And that's before you even get to the page.

I switched my iPhone to Bing recently because of this. It’s in the same order of magnitude of usefulness.

I was on bing for a while but switched to brave search necause it surprisingly had much better results and was even less annoying than bing.
