Google is losing it - Lemmy.World

Google has been bad for a long time, but they’ve shut the bed so hard lately. Seriously, look at this:

I actually run out of screenshot space before I can get to an actual regular research result!

Search done from Germany.

The mobile search doesnt look much different. The order on mobile is as follows:

  • A snippet from glogs.wordlbank.org
  • People also ask
  • Forbes article (see screenshot above)
  • www.epa.gov article

Both are Firefox Desktop (Win) and Mobile (Android) running Consent-O-Matic and ublock Origin

Similar results from Spain. Not sure why it thinks I’m in Michigan.
