1 year ago@sortius @bstix @Provider Online recipes as a positive example in this context is just sad. They are buried under as much fluff, nonsense, and ads that they are barely usable and that button should simply not have to exist.
On top of that, they are all stolen from each other and full of errors. They couldn’t be worse if ChatGPT were behind them.
@sortius @bstix @Provider By stealing I mean that there are several sites that are literally scraped copies of other big sites. But I’m sure users also copy between sites manually.
Often when I search for a recipe I get literally the same one (including spelling errors and such) in different places, in some cases even with the same user comments.
The experience is much better with smaller sites, of course!
