Sometimes I search for medical topics and I just get tons of very similar useless WebMD-like results when I really want to see biohackers talking about their favorite scientific papers regarding whatever metabolic pathways have evidence of behavior correlated with whatever medical issue I feel like learning about today. At best I can sometimes find someone crying on Reddit about a health problem and see a bunch of people telling them to try smoking weed or some other dumb thing to fix it and that's only if I include "reddit" in the query. I feel like emphasis on authority sources has destroyed the usefulness of Google for me. With few exceptions I don't actually use Google when I want to learn stuff anymore.

I see you watched that YouTube video 😂
It has the best page 2 results of any search engine. On par with the page one results of some search engines even. Meanwhile the simplified search with great Page 1 made the Page Down key useful like loud TV commercials made the mute command useful. Google’s simplified search is like Amazon’s Day 1. Mostly legend slipping into myth.
I just get articles repeating the question 1000x
Here's on of the most interesting videos I've seen on the biases in Google search - really basic ones too!

Vs "is X unhealthy", the results will show confirmation bias.
SEO has gamed Google Search to being almost worthless
