Hmmm.
Google search was seriously degenerating from prior to 2016.

I used to reseach metadata on obscure LPs.
Google search just got worse and worse and worse.

@nixCraft Google wasn’t ruined until 2019? That’s the real takeaway tbh.

@nixCraft i feel like a good 75% of the issue is relatively unrelated to google though, it's more so the internet being saturated with SEO perfected LLM slop, because I mostly get useless results from DDG too, which is my primary? Or am I just too stupid to do online searches these days I dunno.

@nixCraft Yandex for stuff Google won't show you. Heck, they even had Visual Search even before Google implemented it.

@nixCraft you are falling for it. How do you know this AI overview is actually factual? I mean, it accidentally is but you are falling for it. Careful out there.
