    It’s like 50% ads and 45% similar-searches (which I assume are mostly just subtle ads). So in the end, each search gets you like 2 real results and 38 pieces of bullshit.

      All the YouTubers and companies engage in SEO and sanitize the content until it’s ad friendly. I just wish it was human friendly like what made them big in the first place
