Feeling very Seen right now. I still choose search terms like it's 2010. http://www.threepanelsoul.com/comic/old-ways
@cato Well, in my experience, it has become normal for many people to write out entire questions
@rixx I wish the last panel was still true. I fell like I am mostly getting garbage these days.
@rixx that hits too close for comfort :x
@rixx I still try to avoid stop words.
@rixx Been there, Do that.
@rixx wait, you can do full questions now? Is this what they broke the strictness of search for? *This*!?! What a sad time.
@rixx But when you put the keywords in quotation marks, it would search for the exact phrase?!?
@rixx it's probably a good feature. I *might* want to prioritize the first word...
@rixx Somehow this feels oddly calming.
Like a warm Sunday afternoon in the garden without worries.
@rixx I’m confused. How do young people search these days? Isn’t this the only way? 🤯
@rixx Yes but it doesn't work like it used to :( You can't get the precision you want. I'm frequently tempted to give in and run my own crawler+indexer with real altavista-like search.
@rixx why would you type in a complete question even in 2021? I never heard anyone say it's weird to put search queries like that
