Rip googling questions and adding reddit. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] AnonStoleMyPants@sopuli.xyz 32 points 2 years ago (2 children) Man, and it works great. It is waaaaay more common to find good answers to a question from a bunch of randoms on the Internet than trying to get an actual answer from a random website. Sometimes you find bs but you can usually quite quickly filter it out, and it gives a good basis from which to then continue to search on the topic. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago I hate that Reddit is so good for answering questions. The alternatives are usually AI written unhelpful trash. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Admetus@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 years ago It was speedier and usually more effective than forums which crept at a snails pace. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Empathy@beehaw.org 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I'm trying out Kagi a little bit, and it has a federation search mode of some kind. I tried it for a search and it gave me results from Lemmy. I don't know yet how Kagi compares to Google in terms of results quality, I barely used it so far. It's pretty expensive though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AnonStoleMyPants@sopuli.xyz 1 point 2 years ago Oh yeah that's true, I should try it as I use it as my main search engine nowadays. permalink fedilink source parent
