Darius KazemiIt is sad to me that in 2024 if I search "Moby-Dick by Herman Melville" (no quotes) on Google, the free Project Gutenberg ebook isn't even in the top ten results
Jessamyn@darius I was surprised it was as high as 12th (for my search anyhow) but I skip over video results as "Obviously not a book" (a librarian superpower in this day and age).
@jessamyn yeah it was right under the fold for me. Really glad they surfaced a $215,000 rare edition in the top 5, very useful
Ethan Marcotte@darius @jessamyn feels sadly relevant https://bsky.app/profile/xanindigo.bsky.social/post/3k2uzkf5en724

ME: So, you know what the quote marks mean? GOOGLE: Yes. ME: And you're going to search for all of these words? GOOGLE: Yes. ME: I don't want results on anything else. GOOGLE: Ok. ME: Good. What did you find? GOOGLE: lol i ignored all your words here's a fucking shower curtain lmao
