Google’s results have been getting worse over time, but it seems like the last couple years, they’ve taken a steep nose-dive, completely overrun with crappy content farming.

I’ve mitigated a lot of that by doing searches for any kind of product comparison or technical question with “site:reddit.com”, but now with the possibility that that trick will become less useful over time as well…?

Yeah. What search engines are other tech folks using?

    I’m happy to pay it myself, as I find that with other engines I pay in frustration and time because the results have to support those who do pay: the advertisers. Much higher value in my daily life than e.g. a Netflix sub.
