With Google getting increasingly worse, reddit is usually where I find what I’m looking for in a sea of blog spam.
And while I personally think Discord is absolutely great as a chat plaform it is nowhere near close as being a reddit replacement. Everything posted in there is silo’d and not searchable from outside.
I think Google would still mostly prefer to provide the most relevant results. (When they aren’t trying to scrape data and keep you from ever actually visiting those sites). But SEO is always an arms race.
I’m hopeful that search engines will be able to leverage some AI soon to start surfacing higher quality results.

I started using AI chats to find info these days because of how bad google is at googling
