This may be obvious, but I recently started routinely adding "-youtube" to google searches. This eliminates most pages with links to garbage YouTube-monetized videos that try to attract people looking for basic instructions on how to do simple things. Greatly improves the quality of search results.
@mattblaze I recently switched to Kagi from Google for search, and it’s fantastic. It’s like returning to the time when Google just gave you the best results.
@anderspuck @mattblaze I recently switched to Duck Duck Go, but it feels like it's a whole different result set than Google would present. Giving Kagi a go now - looking forward to see how that works out.
@saustrup @mattblaze I used Duck Duck Go for several years but definitely think Kagi is better.
