The pivot to video. I yearn for written tech guides or automotive process with well written instructions and detailed pictures. The fact that so much of the info once found in text is now pivoting to some chucklefuck holding his iPhone in one hand while trying to show you how to do a two handed job is extremely aggravating. Don’t even get me started on the need to sift through a 25 minute long tech video because you need to find that one step that you missed.

Video is so fucking low effort and annoying.

And now that Google doesn’t work videos are the only thing I can even fucking find that has accurate information that isn’t completely made up

One of the main reasons adding reddit to search terms is so popular I think, everything there is still text based

hate videos with a burning passion - they are generally extraneous, inefficient time wasting pablum.

lately all of the major search engines are bringing up hallucinated garbage thats written as the AI decided it should work, not how it actually works. its pretty unnerving, actually.
