Launchbar vs. Alfred 2025

Is there something that does exactly the opposite thing? :smiley:

My Google searches in Safari browser were defaulting to show the AI summary at the top of their results without my cooperation or approval. I had no need for “something that does exactly the opposite thing.” But I did find a way to turn off the unwanted default:

How I Made Google’s “Web” View My Default Search

Oh, nice! I have just copied your approach and set up a quick link in Raycast so that when I type in “gold” it opens the “old” version of "g"oogle.

Their AI search results have improved a lot over the last few months, but in their attempt to declutter, they’ve added clutter.

Now I can “g” for new google and “gold” for old google.

Thanks @karlnyhus

How do you like it?

I had finally time to try it out today, but it’s no longer available for download until a new version is ready…

Also, the lifetime license is no longer available :cry:

Thanks for this! I just added a custom search to Alfred. :+1:
