Frustrated with Google's search behavior! Just searched for "orca for linux in vmware workstation pro ubuntu choppiness" and it autocorrected to "arch for linux..." 🤦♀️ This is why I've switched to Perplexity for most searches. Google's assumption that it knows better than the user is so irritating. I meant Orca (the screen reader), not Arch Linux! This kind of "correction" is especially problematic for #accessibility searches.
