It’s google that’s gotten worse. It’s harder to find specific or niche information nowadays because Google doesn’t respect search operators and will instead show you the results for more common searches. That might be fine if you’re looking for general information, but it means that looking up specific facts (part numbers, error messages, etc.) they will drown you in SEO-optomized vague garbage results.
I’d also love some alternatives to use for troubleshooting. I just want to find the niche forum posts where people are discussing my specific issue!
oof. What’s a great alternative to Google? After a few decades I seem to be losing my touch … or maybe it’s the google that’s wrong.
