No_Support_8363,

That’s why I made my default Chrome search engine duckduckgo

RampantParanoia2365,

…did you even bother clicking the Images tab before creating this post?

I had moved to DDG a few years ago and enjoyed it until around the middle of this year when I started getting less and less relevant results.

Started using (and yes, paying for) Kagi 3 or so months ago and it’s amazing going back to searches that actually work again. I don’t know how well I’d handle moving back to an ad supported search provider.

intensely_human,

I had a similar experience today. I wanted to run a battlefield 2042 server and forgot the URL.

(It’s portal.battlefield.com)

So I google searched for “Run a battlefield 2042 server” thinking obviously that would lead to that page. Nope, all it gave me were blog posts and wikihow shit.

Underwaterbob,

I was searching how to cast the screen on an Android phone through USB yesterday, and I had to go through pages of “free” Play Store apps and their shitty tutorials, some of which I downloaded, (one had 50 million downloads) two of which were identical skins of each other that wanted payment information and charged $20 a month after a week long trial, to eventually find out it’s a default included option on any Samsung phone and can be found in some settings. Google search has completely gone to shit.

AnExerciseInFalling,

If you’re still looking for a solution, I highly recommend “scrcpy” github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy

LemmyIsFantastic,

Are you high? This is nearly perfect.

For anyone wondering, here’s that same query in DDG (zoomed out to show same amount of results)

This is definitely what I’d want if I search for this

intensely_human,

This is the moment I switch to DDG. I started using google in 2003 and I think I’m done now.

Pratai,

Oh it’s absolute garbage. It’s virtually impossible to look up anything and get an answer related to your question.

UkaszGra,

Isn’t duckduckgo just bing with disabled tracking?

toofpic,

cough-bing is actually alright, sorry-cough

TunaCowboy,

$ docker search --filter is-official=true redis

spacemanspiffy,

!docker redis DDG bangs are the way.

don't need to bang that one out. docker redis image hit the mark, top result.

KISSmyOS,

If you think that’s bad, try googling something related to Android.
All the results are shitty blog posts full of padding text with grammar and spelling mistakes.

man SEO really has managed to break search. There's so many random blogs that just have pretty much just your search terms in the title and rarely have anything else of use.

floofloof,

There’s usually just AI-generated meandering with no actual information in it.
