Many searches are useless without including reddit.com
Many searches are useless without including reddit.com
As an example: I was doing a search for the best sesame substitute today. Everything that came up was things like, "11 Best Sesame Substitutes," and I know for a fact that just about everything they suggested tastes nothing like sesame. Just another site trying to get hits. So I added reddit.com into my search parameters and immediately got some decent answers.
I really hate that I have to do that to get anything useful, but there is a ridiculous amount of useful information on Reddit. I hope the fediverse gets to this point as well one day.
Anway, just needed to vent. Lemmy on.

Holy shit I have never felt more seen! I thought I was going nuts or I had fucked up my algorithm or something. All search results are garbage these days unless you include Reddit. Bring back the information age of the Internet!
Sucks that it's finally gotten to where it's almost not worth using, I saw that it wasn't the same Google when their "sponsored" ad got a friend of mine scammed outta money. Do more than usual due diligence on any ad or sponsored post on Google... Poor results with a little phishing sites on the side.
I've been trying to find a search engine akin to Googles search back in 06-13 era cause the revelevant info that returned was on point most of the time.
It'll probably be in GPT5 but...ya..know...
