Google Search Is Dying | DKB
dkb.io
Reddit is currently the most popular search engine. The only people who don’t know that are the team at Reddit, who can’t be bothered to build a decent search interface. So instead we resort to using Google, and appending the word “reddit” to the end of our queries.

Essentially saying that due to seo spam and commercialization, Google is now useless for search and more and more people do site:reddit.com.

I think it’s a little extreme but agree generally.

    Related note: if I search site:lemmy.ml it doesn’t appear to give content from instances it’s federated with. Lemmy might be difficult to search.

        Not sure what you mean by meta-search, but definitely need adjustments to work well for the fediverse.
