Maybe it’s just me but I also feel like the reddit results that show up also seem to be getting worse. Used to be the case that I could input a query, add “Reddit” to the end, and immediately get one or two concise, helpful answers, but I’m very frequently getting fluff and having to check 5 or 6 down these days for similar questions.
Look for threads that are at least a year old to get better answers. Among the people who left in the most recent exodus was a good portion of reddit’s tech and science people who were giving good answers and mods who were keeping those answers from being drowned out by shit posters and the confidently incorrect.
