They’ve started inserting a subtle ad as the first result instead of the actual app you’re searching for.
This has to have been a change over the last month or two I feel like?
I’m having to reprogram myself to view the first result as irrelevant. Really makes me want to increase the F-Droid alternatives that I use.
If you buying their products or paying for their services - absolutely yes. If you are just seeing them, then it’s free 🤣
But, seriously - uBlock Origin, AdGuard, PiHole, use FOSS, buy brands that do not advertise (or do not advertise as much), use services that are known because they are good, not because they advertise themselves.
It’s not feasible or possible to 100% this, let’s be real, but partially possible and helps fbe whole picture.
