Honestly, I hope it's around long enough. Right now it's very good and rapidly improving. Enshittification by definition only happens when a service is large enough and successful enough. Until that happens, I'm going to keep using what for me is the best search option.

Let's face it. Search is a fundamental necessity of the internet. How many models can functionally work?

• It could be free for the user, but supported by ads. We've seen how that works. Maybe it's run its course.

• It could be ad-free and paid for by users. The competitive incentive at least is to give users the best possible experience.

• It could be entirely free and provided as a utility. Literally no one is asking for a government run Internet.

• Maybe there's some futuristic solution like an Open Source distributed network in which users run the search themselves. As far as I know nobody has come up with a search that doesn't require a massive database with enormous costs.
