While I believe this is still a bad metric, I also believe that finally it should be up to the user to decide which sites they want ranked first - I'd definitely boost python.org while banning these content farms.

- jstarfish 3y agoI hate shilling for the Russians but I've been very impressed with Yandex lately. It retains that early-2000s Google vibe, where there were still quirky independent sites to discover. Using it also surfaces just how much Google is censoring its own results on controversial topics.

- l0b0 3y agohttps://kagi.com/search?q=python+endswith https://kagi.com/search?q=python+endswith checks out: 1: docs.python.org › 3 › library › stdtypes.html 2: pandas.pydata.org › pandas-docs › stable › reference › api 3: This discussion! I've tried DDG and Brave for a few weeks each, and gone back to them once in a while when Google search has completely failed for things I know exist. They mostly have worse results than Google (purely in terms of relevance of the first page), and Google is trash now. I'll give Kagi a try for a few more days and see, but maybe the web has finally got to the point where paying for search is a useful strategy.

- rg111 3y agoI have used Brave search for some days. It's extremely bad. You can see for yourself.
