Remember "I'm Feeling Lucky"?
It was absolutely bananas that a search engine could be SO GOOD the first result would probably be the right one.
Now the first link (and second and third) are never the right one. Usually something different entirely.

- aniforprez 3y agoThis is hyperbole. Search has 100% gotten so much worse. But 99% of the time, even for technical questions, I can find the correct result on the first page. If I don't, for example in cases where the names clash like the word atlas that has a ton of results, I can add a word of additional context and get the correct result
