Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

MODERATORS
I'm sort of tired of articles describing some catastrophe that happened ten years ago and saying "it's worrying."
Is it? When was the last time you googled something and the first website that came up didn't spit out some SEO or garbage content?
Like every day? Yeah it’s worse now but Google is still useful for a lot of things.
That being said, I do have AdBlock so it’s a different internet for me.
Have you ever tried DuckDuckGo or Qwant? They have better results in my opinion, as long as you don't care about the business snippets.
DuckDuckGo is so much better than Google. Barely any ads, and results that are actually useful 9 times out of 10.
