Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

i think part of the problem is that web search has enshitified over the years, back in the day you would enter the relevant key words and get the info you needed on the top results most of the time, nowadays it's all ads. now ai goes to the point, but less reliable. almost like Gemini trying to solve a problem that Google itself created
Well, AI was also quite instrumental in making web search useless. It made it trivial to create infinite spam pages, which search engines have to filter out. Naturally, too much will get filtered out as a result, meaning you can't find a lot of useful results anymore either.
