Internet search has gotten stupider
Used to be I could always find exactly what I wanted with a quick google
Now I usually have to go into the second page or change my terms a lot before getting there.
Google is so bad now and has been for a while, it’s tough to believe its name is still synonymous with search.
I’ve been toying with the idea of using Kagi, but paying for a search engine is still such a foreign concept for me. I think if you can find a good SearXNG instance you’ll have a much better time.
I am very happy with Kagi. Can recommend. In the end someone has to pay for the service. With Kagi I know I don’t pay with my data but with money.
When you search google for answers and the search results end up being forum replies of someone saying “just google it bro”
Edit: sarcasm, not actual search result… yet
That specifically has actually not happened to me. Though I’ve seen people comment on it.
… But.
One scenario I run into a lot is finding a result that would be useful…
… But it depends on external links. And those links are dead. The internet is a perpetually on fire Library of Alexandria
I’d highly recommend Kagi! You can customise your search results as well, so you can make sure some websites show up more often than others (or even not at all), or higher up/lower down on the list.
