The "just google it" mantra has probably held back quite a lot of interesting conversations and debate
The "just google it" mantra has probably held back quite a lot of interesting conversations and debate
I've always been a "lurker" on all platforms and communities because when I do have a question or would like to contribute my first thought has become:
Actually, let me google it first
In which case I'll usually have some answer. Usually it isn't a complete answer but enough for me to not want to share my question anymore.

Google has really gone to shit. "2009 Eurovision winner". 3 pages of the 2033 Eurovision winner.
Same with Google maps. "Pyramids of Giza", shows pyramids bar in London.
Why are you not placing bets on who the 2033 winner will be with your prescient searching

I suspect Google doesn't want to to find stuff quickly so you can stay on their site longer, or they show sites that try to sell something as much as possible. I'm using Espanso (text expansion) to filter out a list of words like shop, prices, buy, Amazon, apple, pinterest. But still other search engines often have better results nowadays.
It's really really gotten bad in the last few months. Results are usually full of those SEO Blog Spam, or completely random things... or sometimes even nothing at all.
