Hi lemmy. One time I was on YouTube and I wanted to learn more about my latest interest, neuroscience, so I entered into the search bar “Neuroscience” and every single result was from self help gurus.

Oftentimes, I will attempt to find information for something im curious about. More often then not, my search will be slowed by thousands of shitty SEO optimized/self-help guru made/absolutely utterly useless “Top 10 Things to so for X” content. This happens on pretty much every large platform I have ever searched on ever.

have gotten better at googling and searching for the results I want(searching “neuroscience lecture” instead of “neuroscience”) But I can only improve my googling skills so much, so that’s why I wanted to ask a few questions:

  1. How do I search the internet/google for blogs/forums/media from experts easily? Is there a chrome extension to remove SEO overoptimized results? Do I need to use a different search engine?

  2. Are there any approaches I can take that apply to more then just google?

    I use Kagi and uprank non-shitty sites. I think there’s also uBlacklist or uBO filters that can remote shitty sites.
