Ok we had a different view of searching. I think you propose 'vertical' search as a search engine feature where you could chose to search discord or some other index. I was thinking in the context of general web search results where ranking discord results among others would be hard.
- ianbutler 4y agoYeah I think that like opinion or review type content is probably a big enough area of information that google fails to really serve these days that going after it is a smart idea both because of how much better it can be for users but also because I think it's a large and potentially profitable niche. I think general fact based search is super solved and competing there is a waste. Edit: And when I say general fact based I mean like "Who is the president of the US right now?" For individual areas of knowledge (programming being an obvious one for me) there's still improvement to be had for sure.
