I can't trust a single thing that pops up on google because everything is auto generated blog spam

And regarding reddit, moderation keeps reddit at a good quality but if reddit takes away moderators tools and introduces more instructive ads it will become low quality and untrustworthy as well

You've got a typo. I assume you mean intrusive ads.

Some Reddit posts are already at an all time low in quality. Places like r/worldnews, r/technology or ELI5, where you used to find "at least" a couple decent comments, have already seen top posts with 0 useful top comments... and I've looked through all of them out of morbid curiosity, but no, not a single one.
