    Works for me…

    Anything special about your account?
    Family Link restriction or so?

    I also haven’t seen a “confirm your age” message up to now.
    Maybe a country-specific restriction?
    Where are you from?

        Okay, I see, didn’t notice the “login” on the screenshot before.
        But then it kinda makes sense that the the most restrictive default filters are active.

          No it doesn’t. It’s about friction. They want people logged in to better monitor them and collect their data. If someone uses their service while logged out the platforms make it difficult as possible in as many ways as possible to “encourage” people to create an account and log in. “Protecting the children” is just a satanic panic excuse. PARENTS are responsible for managing their children’s online activities. Expecting platform providers to be the arbitrators of morality for our kids (or for adults) is how we ended up with Elon Musk’s fucked up CSM generator on twixxer.

      Tried it on the duckduckgo browser without an account and it didn’t work. Just said no results found.
