Don't worry, I'm sure google will disable that soon in the same way they disable all the other search syntax that used to make searching a simple and easy task
"Search engine" is not equivalent to "Google".
Cool, pedant. Addend "on google" to my comment then if you need, since that's clearly the context we're talking about here. I'm aware there are other search engines, but context should have made what I was talking about pretty fucking obvious.
(Not OP) Point taken, but in that case the solution should also be obvious. Just use a different one that does provide that. If the product sucks, hit the bricks. DDG and Kagi are looking for market share, they'd love to have you.
I do use alternatives, but I mention Google because it's what's relevant to the conversation at hand.
