Comment on The ad in the middle of this article about conspiracy theories
Neato@ttrpg.network 7 months agoThere’s less info now than a few years ago and it’s harder to find. Web 2.0 has put most of the data and traffic into just a few hands. And as we can see with Twitter that can lead to a significant part of the Internet going to shit overnight.
Hell, most of us are here because of what reddit did overnight. It’s certainly better than the age of web rings but we’ve entered a downturn.

Agree, especially with the getting harder to find part. I’ve followed some other user’s recommendation and have been using kagi.com for the last 2 weeks as my search engine of choice, and it’s really way ahead of google these days. I’m still in the free tier but about to hit the ceiling this week, and I’m rather certain I’ll end up paying for it before I go back to google.
The results are about on par with Goolge ~2022. No ads, no trackers, and most of the SEO garbage that’s targeting google (and maybe bing?) is by and large disregarded. Worth a try for sure.
