That's the point. This entire thing is complaining about SEO. If your business model is serving ads with SEO and not retaining people with quality content, I'm not going to get too upset about it.

Google is killing itself with this shit, but it doesn't really matter. People will move back to Link aggregators and actually working to get the search results they need.

People will move back to Link aggregators

For link aggregators you mean social media like Lemmy or Reddit, or pages like FMHY which curate its content thoroughly? I found the latter a very good resource, I'd waste too much time finding all the links shared there using any search engine.

Any of the bug. I left i vague because I think there's still a chance for a disruptive force to enter the market.
