Many searches are useless without including reddit.com
As an example: I was doing a search for the best sesame substitute today. Everything that came up was things like, "11 Best Sesame Substitutes," and I know for a fact that just about everything they suggested tastes nothing like sesame. Just another site trying to get hits. So I added reddit.com into my search parameters and immediately got some decent answers.
I really hate that I have to do that to get anything useful, but there is a ridiculous amount of useful information on Reddit. I hope the fediverse gets to this point as well one day.
Anway, just needed to vent. Lemmy on.
Sucks that it's finally gotten to where it's almost not worth using, I saw that it wasn't the same Google when their "sponsored" ad got a friend of mine scammed outta money. Do more than usual due diligence on any ad or sponsored post on Google... Poor results with a little phishing sites on the side.
I've been trying to find a search engine akin to Googles search back in 06-13 era cause the revelevant info that returned was on point most of the time.
It'll probably be in GPT5 but...ya..know...
