I see it in the USA.
I quit Google search and I wouldn't normally type a search on the google.com homepage anyway.
A lot of buttons, but no search in US.
It still does a basic search if I just hit enter. I search from the address bar, so no idea how long it's been this way.
Uh, the search button is still there on their homepage? Maybe it's a test in specific countries?
Pesquisa Google = Google search
No search button here in Canada.
Hmm... if only there's literally any other search providers in existence...
Source it’s being removed?
I haven't touched google in years. They won't be missed.
That would completely defeat the purpose of Google
I hadn’t noticed.
Looks like it only applies to Android phones and only the Google app search page (who uses that?) and though it looks like an AI button it (also?) returns search results.

Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.
