@zenhob@butts.team adblock the ai overviews. No mercy.
Every couple months they change the css class and i need a new ublock rule but that's at least somewhat tolerable compared to the alternative.

@zenhob@butts.team Open question: if you adblock the overview, does it prevent the request from being made to the server? Or is it still burning energy and just not being rendered? I'm not sure of the specific point in the search process that it happens and when ublock steps in.

@azonenberg@ioc.exchange @zenhob@butts.team I noticed that uBlock randomly stopped working on Chrome one day. Looked it up, turns out Google doesn't like that ad blockers exist. I switched to Firefox and have been using that ever since. 😬
