Interesting, but how come it never did that before? Did I just not notice?
I don’t know. I’ve noticed it happening for the last few months. Maybe they have the ability to update caches faster now and want to give the most fresh results. It can be irritating if you’re like me and like to click a result and then go back and open a bunch of results in new tabs.
Sounds plausible yeah, so I haven’t gone crazy haha, it really is annoying since usually the new results are also worse than the first batch in my experience. Guess I’ll just pick up the habit of opening everything in a new tab from the get go
FWIW I thought the same. Seems like every search engine turns to doo with time.
Would be a great moment for a great open source search engine to take everyone by storm, well, like that’s ever gonna happen…
I feel like that would be more easily gameable. SearXNG relies on results from other engines and there’s this one distributed one that’s apparently basically useless for most searches. Do with that info what you will. ~Nai
