January 2[edit]

Google seems to have changed jts search results. How do I change back to multiple pages?[edit]

I don't like Facebook style software, which means as you go down the page, you keep everything above it, and eventually there is the potential for overloading the computer.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 22:57, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't notice any change. Can you be more specific about the perceived change?  --Lambiam 02:08, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Starting today, we’re bringing continuous scrolling to desktop in English in the U.S. so you can continue to see more search results easily. When you reach the bottom of a search results page, you'll now be able to see up to six pages of results." -- Google tweet from a month ago. I haven't figured out to disable it yet. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 04:23, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It hasn't been rolled out in the UK yet, but you could try the old method: Perform any search > Click the settings cog (top right) > Click "See all settings" > Adjust the "results per page" setting. Shantavira|feed me 09:21, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know if it worked. I still saw a rotating circle indicating more was being loaded.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 17:18, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
