No, you don't want to know more about KATE's spellchecker, you want to genAI slopify your writing!

If anyone would be kind I would be interested in:

  • How do I add additional dictionaries to KATE? For some reason, it only has Hungarian despite my Linux installation being in English.
  • Any usable search engine left out there?

Kate is a very common name. maybe it's being disregarded. I don't believe those are sponsored results.

It’s paid and US-based, but Kagi has been serving me very well!

+1 for kagi, personally. Ive been using them for nearly 3 years and have never had a single complaint, and i literally complain about everything. Well...their maps requiring webgl is annoying....but at the same time its not loaded with nonsensical markers to the point of being unreadable.

I haven't used kagi before, is there a way to disable the AI assistant? I understand I don't have to use it, but I'd rather it not be on my screen at all.

Yes, there is. You can also force it for a single search by adding a "?" at the end of your query.

I think they might have changed it. Now they just have the setting to disable quick answers. If you turn on that setting then "?" won't do anything.

The irony.

Edit: ddg(while on private search) also have two ads for spellchecker, then only the actual site when you scroll down a bit. Still in first page though.

Ecosia also a few item below, and startpage are same as ddg.

Not entirely unexpected, we know from sampling studies that while Google's search results did get worse over the years, it got so slower than Bing, which is a huge portion of the search results of many alternative engines.

DDG search is not good

It's cuz DDG uses Bing search services, and since Bing is a M$ product, this suggestion would make sense

DuckDuckGo slightly alters your search results based on your reginon and so I couldn't reproduce this. Try advanced syntax with queries like +kate spellchecker or even "kate" spellchecker. Failing that, add terms you don't want to see (-ai, -"quillbot").

Which distro are you using and how did you install kate ? Usually to add dictionaries you just have to install hunspell packages

I'm not promoting DDG, I don't use it either, just saying that they do provide a no ai version (currently at least)

Also note that no LLM doesn't mean no "promoted" listings

seems usable to me

I use Kagi and it's usually better than ddg and google, but in this case not much. TBF your query kinda sucks tho. By searching "kate spellchecker add dictionary", I found this.

What's your distro? Have you tried searching on your package manager? That's where dictionaries usually are.
