Google Search Is Dying

Totally agree on the reddit point, I've also noticed the same occurring to me. The girlfriend recently got Pokemon Arceus and sometimes asks me to Google something she wants to know.

It's completely pointless, you just get a bunch of articles from news sites (??) that transcript the quest but not tell you anything more. I miss a nice community wiki like I'm used to from playing Dark Souls etc.

I've just started appending site:reddit.com to everything, works a lot better.

I've been adding this to my searches for years. Check out this site that will save you a few keystrokes: https://gooreddit.com/

Or you could just add a custom search keyword directly in your browser...

Yeah, Fextralife saved my ass multiple times while working through the dark souls series. It's a shame that type of community resource isn't more popular.
