Yes, you can use ublock. There's a button on the extension to remove elements from a website. Or if you're on mobile you can use Brave browser which has the same function.

Thanks. I have uBlock. But it looks like with the latest Chrome it does not block

On 149.0.7827.156, Zapper mode still works for me. However...

If you just open a new tab and use google that way, it seems zapper mode doesn't work there. If you navigate to google.com it does work there.

I think Chrome might lock down what's really a chrome page and not let extensions mess around.

Good idea with the Zapper. It works for pages with an URL, but when opening a new tab there is no webpage to "zap", just the Google Doodle.

My solution now: Switch to other search engine (Brave/DuckDuckGo)

Switch to Firefox. And/or Kagi. Google is unlikely to be your friend.
