I definitely wasn't asking for maximum packet size, which a search feature showed in huge print as the answer to my question. I don't expect the search algorithm to know my precise intent, but I'd like it to weigh the word "typical" highly.
Between google, bing and duckduckgo, only duckduckgo presented this above the fold: https://etherealmind.com/average-ip-packet-size/ https://etherealmind.com/average-ip-packet-size/
- Kique 7y agoI'm seeing that etherealmind link as #4 on Google, and then #3 on DDG. And the results above it on DDG are also related to the maximum size, and the entire sidebar on DDG is the same stackoverflow link about the maximum size. Not sure if DDG is really that much better than Google here.
- icebraining 7y agoIn Google, after that card, I get their "People also ask", and the second question is "What is the average packet size?", which links to https://superuser.com/questions/964682/what-is-the-average-size-of-a-packet-sent-via-tcp-ethernet https://superuser.com/questions/964682/what-is-the-average-s... Seems ok to me. It should also be noted that the etherealmind.com link doesn't actually contain the word "typical", so if you think Google should try to outsmart users less, it's not reasonable to blame it for not showing that link.
