Marketing content has definitely destroyed Google search. So much harder to find in-depth content

If you don't mind this unsolicited product-recommendation, I use Kagi now and I'm won-over. Turns out that when users pay for a search-engine it ends-up focused towards the users' needs and not advertisers; funny that.

(Though Kagi isn't perfect: I find it slower than Google: it'll take maybe 500ms for a result compared to <100ms on Google; Search-autocomplete is also less responsive, and their privacy-first approach means they don't save your search-history, whereas I want them to save my search-history for me, but anyway).

The way Google randomly deletes words in your search term drives me insane.
