This is the dumbest shit. I'm doing home reno stuff constantly and we live in a world where everyone looks up info online constantly. Sometimes I need to reference an old reddit thread or whatever. It's usually better than whatever garbage Google AI spits out at you by default.
Sure just guide people to doing stuff wrong. I'm so glad a few decades ago we invented this amazing source of knowledge and information and communication that is easily accessible for the first time in human history and yeah let's just purposefully fuck it up.
Seriously, it is a huge pain in the ass exploring a niche subject and you get some scrambled comment because "reddit bad".
at some point they will gatekeep all that with subscription or something
