Yes and on the other hand sites like codegrepper and other such scraper/scam sites are frequently showing in my search results - which are just SO results.
I don't know if they're gaming Google's search or google is actually condoning this (like they've been condoning pinterest's shenanigans for almost 10 years now)
- oezi 5y agoThere is a ublock origin list which you can import to filter search results: https://github.com/quenhus/uBlock-Origin-dev-filter https://github.com/quenhus/uBlock-Origin-dev-filter

- maeil 5y agoIt has become very bad; searching for something like an error message, the first result is SO and results 2-9 will be SO scrapers. Unlike say, Pinterest, I don't see anything Google could gain from "condoning" these scraper sites. I feel it's 1. gradual ranking algorithm changes 2. succesful gaming.
- account42 5y ago> I don't see anything Google could gain from "condoning" these scraper sites Do these scraper sites show Google ads?
- halpert 5y agoI genuinely believe it's because the scraper sites have more Google ads on them compared to Wikipedia and Stack Overflow. The ad load on returned search results has reached astronomic proportions. I use uBlock on my laptop, but it's almost impossible to view search results on my phone.
