imagine if all those packages would need to be transported as well. Like with boat or by air. What if we used this quality engineering towards solving real problems instead? Like how to decrease pollution or something along those lines…
Who’s gaining traffic right now? Is it just Reddit and a few others that has caught the traffic from this implosion or is the volumes of searches shrinking due to perhaps AI?

Love it, same old paul graham propaganda, of course Reddit hasn’t peaked even if the graph resembles the one right next to it :) I think pg peaked some 5 years ago.

But the main topic, has google search peaked. Yes it has. The amounts of ads vs great relevant search results peaked some time ago.

Curious about what people think about outliners vs storing information in a rich text format, any thoughts?

How would you consider an outline vs “paper” documents?

Another solution to _this_ problem might be to get your site reviewed by a conversion specialist or using some sort of heuristic review. In many cases my experience is that a combination of more qualitative methods such as user testing combined and heuristic evaluations and heatmaps and with Google Analytics solves _most_ of the issues you have with your site.
