Tool to De-Clutter Google Search for Faster Research

Search Cleaner is built for this: it hides the boxes Google puts between the links, including "People Also Ask", shopping carousels, sponsored results, videos and the AI Overview, each with its own switch. With them hidden, a google.com results page becomes a simple list you can scan quickly. It doesn't block particular sites; uBlacklist covers that.
