I have similar frustrations with health and baby queries. The results are all cookie cutter generic BS from a handful of big names. Useful resources and forums maintained by actual practitioners and patients get buried on page 21 or something.

I’m so jaded by the web and I blame Google for ruining it. It’s search algorithm ensures that the incentives are completely misaligned for content creators.

Are the incentives not coming from the people paying the creators, rather than Google?

its bc google is an effective monopoly on search. if we had to optimize for multiple engines, chances are it’d be a better world

mind you, i guess you can blame google for the monopoly..
