## Description

🔥 SEARCH BEFORE THE BOTS TOOK OVER

remember when search results were written by actual humans who 
actually knew what they were talking about? yeah, us too.

WHAT IT DOES

automatically filters your searches to before November 30, 2022 - 
the day ChatGPT dropped and the internet got flooded with AI content.

no setup. no config. just real content from real people.

WHERE IT WORKS

✓ Google - actual search results
✓ Reddit - real people, real discussions
✓ GitHub - developers who actually built stuff
✓ Stack Overflow - answers from people who solved it
✓ DuckDuckGo, Bing, Yahoo - all the search engines

WHY USE THIS

look, AI is cool and all. but sometimes you need:

• product reviews from people who actually bought the thing
• tutorials from people who actually did it
• advice from people who actually experienced it
• discussions where people actually have opinions

since late 2022, finding that authentic content got way harder. 
this fixes it.

THE VIBE

✓ works automatically - just search like normal
✓ toggle on/off whenever - full control
✓ zero tracking - we literally don't care about your data
✓ light as hell - won't slow anything down
