Installing Linux on my gaming PC because I want to see if Proton is as good as it sounds.

Haven’t done this in a while, so I asked llm for help. Dude, I had a dozen follow-up questions and everything was just spot on. I don’t miss googling my way through long forum threads and ad-ridden websites at all.

I know it’s terrible that these sites don’t get my traffic now. But the llm is the better UI for this, so it won’t go away. How do we solve this?

@ericteubert It think this is a tough one. Mainly because the quality sites themselves seem to disappear. And on top of that: the kind of knowlge you were seeking is mainly an aggregate one. Something you got in the past only by scraping and learning yourself, piece by piece.

To me the whole UI of the regular web is quite dead. I can't even remember the last time I searched something and didn't get back a shit-hole of ad-mania. :(

@monkeydom @ericteubert You’re right, I wouldn’t mind searching for every question I encountered if it wasn’t such a dreadful experience.
Who knows, llm enshittification will come quickly enough and get somehow worse than the current state of web and web search 😑

Thank you for the moon article. Didn’t know that one and indeed, a drop of antidote.
