Anil DashThere has absolutely not been a better opportunity in this century to build a successful new search engine for the internet. The dominant players are running full speed to make their offerings worse, and that’s after *years* of complaints that Google’s results are decaying.
Scott Jenson@anildash I agree, but it's also important to discuss how the web has become so much harder to search properly. Content mills, click farms, and soon LLM generated content, create an extremely hard 'wheat from chaff' problem.
Nick@scottjenson @anildash and that's when they'll come up eith a premium subscription service to give you a 'pure' search experience
No, the search engines really want to give you good content! It's just that there is just 100x more crap out there (due to the influence of ads)
The secret to a better search engine is to figure out a better web: an alternative to the race to the bottom hell that comes from ad clicks (waves hands)
