I'm with you. This shift over the last decade or so to everything being in video essay format is infuriating. Especially when I'm trying to look up instructions for something that could just be a five item bulleted list or a single image but instead is stretched out into a ten minute video.

There have actually been a few times I've given up on finding some piece of information or instructions I wanted because I could only find video sources.

There are also the SEO sites, you search for how to write a file in python and you get 20 pages about file writing and why that is used, the history of python and more until you, maybe, get the simple one liner you forgot about.

And I use an ad blocker.

I know it's so google thinks I'm enjoying myself on that site because I stay there "longer", and thus thinks it's a good site, but would it be so hard to have a search engine just straight out exclude large sites? I mean it does clearly not work well.

Fuck, exclude all "dynamic" ones too. Back to pure html! đŸ˜ș

I use a firefox extension called uBlacklist. It blocks any site you hate from appearing in google search results. No more facebook, instagram, youtube, tiktok etc.
