    Yeeeaaaa, try doing that when Google wants to sell you something. Doesn’t matter what you type, all the results will still just be ads.

      Do you have an example? Cause that hasn’t been my experience.
      And I’m not even trying to shill for Google, it’s usually my third choice when I haven’t found anything on Duck and Qwant.

        Sure, a good one I encountered recently was trying to find a picture of the pedals on a 2009 Mercedes GL550 so I could see if later models of floor mats would fit. I wish you luck, because I gave the fuck up after 3 hours.

          Here you go:



          (I admit for image search your point is very valid - Google puts mostly images of products from online stores up.
          For image search I always use Duckduckgo, the results are better and it actually gives you the link to the full res image.)
