I see Google search decline in three stages:
- When they became ad obsessed where entire search results are filled with ads or YouTube recommendations
- Developed recency bias, aka if it's new it must be better, which has incentivized frequent content regurgitation rather than originality
- They became Woke, disappearing results that apparently aren't passing the Woke Filter and/or that don't align with political ideology/objectives
As for reddit, does anyone really trust reddit? Reddit is absolutely inundated with crap, spam, blatant marketing campaigns, political bias, and all sorts of screwy stuff. It's also highly manipulated, and no more trustworthy than Yelp, slightly more than Yahoo Answers.
Search is ripe for disruption but it's a tall order, and user/marketer generated crap like reddit certainly isn't it.
