    I noticed this as well, but it also made me reflect on why I even started adding “reddit” to my searches.

    It’s kind of crazy how bad most other results are. They are almost universally some kind of sponsored ad or blog content written by the marketing department of some brand. It’s strangely difficult to find the information you are looking for on google these days.

    Reddit was a band-aid but the larger issue is more in how search became an outlet for ads. Modern billboards on the information superhighway.

    I’m not sure if there’s a proper solution anymore.
