Esp. relevant amidst the reddit blackout, and how it’s affecting Google Search quality as well.

      I hope we’re also on the cusp of a new era of search… not sure how that would look like but I envision with SEO-optimized AI-generated articles (esp. all those top 10 articles which is so easy to generate with AI), Google is only going to continue going downhill spammed with fake content.

      also reddit’s own search kind of sucks, so Google is basically a glorified reddit search engine for me half the time.

          you’re right, i was just oblivious to it until the blackout showed me how much i rely on reddit to get any useful search results…
