In Firefox and its derivatives, you can add the non-AI version of DuckDuckGo as a search engine by going into Settings > Search > Search Shortcuts > Add and then giving it a name of your choice with https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?q=%25s being put in the "URL with %s in place of search term" part. You have to remove the 25 part from the URL though, that seems to be a Lemmy quirk with posting a link.

I don't know when they made this available, but I'm learning about this now and it's super useful if you hate LLMs and also use a browser that clears cookies on close (such as Mullvad or LibreWolf).

Thank you. Was getting annoyed at how much space the ai response took up

    Isn't it just the height of a normal result? I occasionally see it in default desktop.
