The Verge shows how Google search is useless
theverge.com
The Verge published this spam article about the "best printers of 2024" to demonstrate how terrible Google's search results are. It now appears as the top non-sponsored post if you search "best printer" on Google.
I love a good, informative troll.

yes i also noticed google search is absolute trash lately. so i switched to searx and life is better. i only go to google for street view and reverse image search now.
For reverse image search, Google is also becoming more and more useless. I usually also look on Yandex to identify fake profiles using photos of other people.
Where does Yandex's money go these days?
I don’t know. Just noticed that their normal Russian web search redirects to “Dzen”, whereas images.yandex.ru is still showing as “Yandex”.
Kagi is still working super well for me.
Searx instances always seem to be blocked by the engines they rely on though?
I host my own to avoid running into timeouts, fairly easy
i havent seen bad results at least. i use one with a good rating/latency listed on searx.space
