I’m having to use Google to search Amazon. Looking for 696 2-gang masonry box today. Amazon shows trash. Google finds 20 at various prices right away on Amazon.com.

Yesterday I was looking for the guts of a Polaris reverse valve. I put in the exact part number, nothing close. Google found 10 right away on Amazon.

Nobody wants semantics when looking for things. This is garbage.

It's not AI ruining Amazon search. It's Amazon pushing "featured products" and vendors. Those that pay extra to have their search results first.

DDG is just a bing wrapper that attempts to hide your data. Bing scores lower than Google in search honesty, hiding results further, but at least they haven’t leaked that they give you bad results on purpose so you have to click around and look longer. DDG is my phone default.
