Letβs be honest, google search has been turning to crap for a long time. I would appreciate google search being destroyed to the point a new player comes along or they get their search back to 2000-2005 quality.
Thought I was going slowly mad, good to have confirmation that it's not just me who thinks google search has gone to complete shit. I can't remember the last time a "-" modifier actually worked.
Once search switched to boxing people in based off what they and other people search for, it really went downhill, and then they started directing search more and more towards add revenue. Then they removed Boolean followed by continuing to make it suck. Then they removed their company pledge to not be evil.
Losing reddit search results would actually reduce the quality of all the competitors too.
Except for AI models that have already been trained on the data before it was deleted. So if all the useful information on reddit is deleted, we'll essentially make ChatGPT the only search engine that actually does anything.
Just hopping from one near-monopoly to another at that point.
Same as it ever was
