Tack “&udm=14” on to the end of a normal search, and you’ll be booted into the clean 10 blue links interface. While Google might not let you set this as a default, if you have a way to automatically edit the Google search URL, you can create your own defaults.
A small proxy site was written to do this for you: https://udm14.com/
Can also just add a custom search engine to Firefox with the search URL string:
https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s
No need to go through a completely separate site.
And this way you’ll be sure the intermediate site isn’t also scraping your data.
That site is open source, in GitHub. Not much to it.
I’m not a programmer. Can I add this to the url string I already have as my default custome search?
Example:
https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14&q=%s
Or is this the same thing as yours: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14
IDK about the order but limit yourself to one query equals percent S there.
To help understand why (since it’s simple enough!):
google dot com/search?q=%sbecomes
google dot com/search?q=YourSearchTermcuz it replaces the %s with what you type.
So
google dot com/search?q=%s&udm=14looks right to me
I think I may try both and see what happens just because I’d like to know. Thanks for the response though.
You should, easy enough.
Even with %s in a URL twice it’ll probably work, just show the query twice in the navigation bar.
