SEO has made it incredibly hard to find answers without getting spammed by news and blog sites. Places like ask Lemmy help democratize answers through upvotes and downvotes so the quality is higher.
Do you know of any hidden gems for search engines or Q&A sites that contain highly relevant answers without much noise?
I personally use brave search, it has worked very well in the 6ish months I’ve used it. Not only for privacy but the results are solid and I’ve noticed improvements from feedback in the community. If it has enough data it does have an AI generated summary as well which I’ve found to be very useful for precise questions.

I started using Kagi a while back. It’s a paid search engine but is pretty solid
Kagi looks interesting, i was hoping someone would move into the market to try to make a real search engine again
That is wild! I can’t believe they made us have to pay for information now.
they always did, with google you paid with your privacy and attention to ads. in the pre-google days you paid your ISP and/or aol
