How do you search for blogs/forums/media directly from experts rather then the usual SEO slop google/big tech shows you?
Hi lemmy. One time I was on YouTube and I wanted to learn more about my latest interest, neuroscience, so I entered into the search bar "Neuroscience" and every single result was from self help gurus.
Oftentimes, I will attempt to find information for something im curious about. More often then not, my search will be slowed by thousands of shitty SEO optimized/self-help guru made/absolutely utterly useless "Top 10 Things to so for X" content. This happens on pretty much every large platform I have ever searched on ever.
have gotten better at googling and searching for the results I want(searching "neuroscience lecture" instead of "neuroscience") But I can only improve my googling skills so much, so that's why I wanted to ask a few questions:
-
How do I search the internet/google for blogs/forums/media from experts easily? Is there a chrome extension to remove SEO overoptimized results? Do I need to use a different search engine?
-
Are there any approaches I can take that apply to more then just google?
You're viewing a single thread.
I paid for Kagi for a while and many of my coworkers use it. It's a solid and growing engine that's getting a a lot right re: creating good UX and generating search results (which should be the goal of a search engine, *sigh).
That said, l use SearxNG daily nowadays because it's decentralized and privacy-focused. You can use any of the public instances or host your own if you like.
Here's an example of the search results for "Neuroscience" on the instance I use.
This is really helpful, SearxNG looks pretty good, might also check out Kagi
