It's frustrating to see a post like this just blaming Google for their issues, when perhaps their reporting/reviews might be at fault? Many people who look up reviews for products reviewed by Retro Dodo often criticize the reviews for lacking substance or getting very basic facts wrong.

I know that I added them to my personal filter list when I found them providing mis-info or just click-farming off of unannounced products.

It's not about whether you agree with their content, it's that AI and aggregated results are getting ranked above all original pages. I don't have any more hard evidence than the author does, but it's also been my experience that the film of mashed up self-contradictory detritus has been growing thicker and thicker over time. This new wave of non-content is totally different from the old landscape of true or false content.
