They’ve started inserting a subtle ad as the first result instead of the actual app you’re searching for.

This has to have been a change over the last month or two I feel like?

I’m having to reprogram myself to view the first result as irrelevant. Really makes me want to increase the F-Droid alternatives that I use.

    Just go this way, and if you’re fed up with the Play Store switch to Aurora Store: same apps, no ads.

      And/or set up something like Obtainium for those apps you can pull directly from their source.

      Gets you updates a lot faster, too
