What do you all search with?

posted 1 year ago

Google’s results have been getting worse over time, but it seems like the last couple years, they’ve taken a steep nose-dive, completely overrun with crappy content farming.

I’ve mitigated a lot of that by doing searches for any kind of product comparison or technical question with “site:reddit.com”, but now with the possibility that that trick will become less useful over time as well…?

Yeah. What search engines are other tech folks using?

And to see if there is a bang already for a website you use often, use !bang lemmy or whatever to see the list of !bangs for that site
