How did you disable this "bullshit personalization of search"?
- moylan 15y agoi find changing my search from standard google to; http://www.google.com/pda http://www.google.com/pda eliminates instant preview and instant results that really annoy me.
- saalweachter 15y agohttp://www.google.com/preferences http://www.google.com/preferences If you disable Instant, you can also crank it up to 100 results per page. Hell, you can manually block gplus.google.com, facebook.com, and twitter.com and pretend the whole "social" thing never happened.
- moylan 15y agoi do use that. however i spend a substantial amount of time on other peoples systems and when using other peoples systems especially windows systems i avoid logging into google in case of malware. the default settings of google search are just garish these days. i tried duckduckgo and while it was ok it just wasn't as good as google... yet. of course i'm not a fan of their new makeover either. i just prefer simple design.
- peterwwillis 15y agoIf you google around you can find links to disable Google+, Google Instant, SPYW, etc (the most effective form being deleting your profile and disabling web history, but still retains your main Google account). This way when you're logged in you get the very least amount of bullshit crowding the plain-old search results we used to love.
