I've been noticing something similar happening with GitHub issue threads. Spam sites like githubmemory.com are frequently ranking higher than GitHub itself, and sometimes GitHub doesn't even show up at all, even with a specific search term that appears in an issue thread for a popular repo.
The cynic in me can see good reasons for both Google and Microsoft to be okay with this.
- prox 5y agoI have been DuckDuckGo 100% completely the last month and from these messages I am super happy I did. Google is tanking fast. Even a general public of r/askreddit noticed, with a huge thread and similar experiences. If I was Google, I would be very worried, and if I was DDG I would be pulling out all stops with advertising.
- easrng 5y agoDuckDuckGo has lots of ads actually, even on the radio (!) which is pretty interesting.
- herbst 5y agoI wasn't even aware how many sites mirror GitHub until Google stopped finding GitHub for me at all. If I don't add 'GitHub' it likely won't show up, and if I do there is no guarantee either.
