It is clear that the signal to noise ratio of the WWW is getting worse. It’s much harder to find good content when using a good old search engine. And if it’s good it is usually hosted on Reddit or Stackexchange.

So remember, even if it’s easy too Google something (well, it isn’t nowadays), we want to create a fediverse of good content that helps people (I hope). So, it’s always better to write a real answer if you have the time and energy. Please help boost the SNR and reverse the AI fueled information degradation loop.

        Kindly do not portray DDG as an “alternative” because it is now trash as well.

        2 years ago it was the alternative, today its a sidegrade at best

          A simple redirector to regular Google is really not an alternative at all.
