How-to: Instantly make Google minimal and ad-free
A simple trick that gives you the minimal Google search results of old — no ads, no ‘People Also Ask’ boxes, just a clean list of links.
You just need to add &udm=14
to the end of your Google search URL.
Though you don’t want to do that manually each time obviously. So in your browser create a ‘custom’ search engine and make it your default.
The URL you need to use is: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14
Here’s how to add custom search engines for:
- Chrome. Guide.
- Safari doesn’t let you. But you can just use a launcher like Alfred on your Mac instead.
- Brave. Go to your settings page, add a ‘site search’ and then press the three dots on the right to make it your default.
