One of my favorite passtimes is going on a chatbot and asking it really out of left field questions. “Last night while I was sleeping I was woken up to my neighbor making fried eggs in my kitchen. The eggs were pretty good, but I’m concerned how he got inside. Do you know what seasonings he might have used on the egg? It was green.”
That’s a weird thing to do, but I’m here for it. I mostly ask it real technical questions about my game code to see if it can solve it, or find me a source that has already solved it. I usually Google it first tho. But every search engine has made their searches worse, so I don’t usually find what I want. Even just a year or two ago searches would pop up forum posts with the solutions to my issue someone else already asked and had answered. Now it’s like digging through a hay stack for a needle.
Try Kagi if you can afford a paid search engine. You can even specifically search the fediverse.
I’ve been using noai.duckduckgo.com for a while and it’s still useful. The problem isn’t just the search engines it’s the SEO that shit sites abuse to get to the top of searches.
