I guess we all kinda knew that, but it’s always nice to have a study backing your opinions.

    Google search has,become so bad I couldn’t even get the number of my insurance company yesterday. There was nothing but spam on the first page. I am in the market for something new.

      Same. Though according to the article, Google is still better than competition, so yeah, not that many alternatives.

      and the study itself points out that Google has improved over the past year and is performing better than other search engines. More broadly, numerous third parties have measured search engine results for other types of queries and found Google to be of significantly higher quality than the rest.

      I’ve been noticing this the past 6 months or so. It’s not much different than duckduckgo now. And now I’m thinking I need to find more search engines since google is no longer the end all be all when I’m looking for something.
