Has the website changed im the past few years like has it updated for mobile support?

I am using Ecosia with bing engine configuration. Google still surfaces better results for my case. What should I try?

Not really. Google can only be as good if it actually has good stuff it can surface you. You can’t find something that does not exist.

I haven’t tried yet so i am asking. I currently only use brave because I know they patch whatever google does to evade adblock

But they are the only plausible alternatives with enough funding to operate

AFAIK, it’s still possible to upload content that can be demonitized if you really don’t care about monetization. The video will not be deleted, it will just be demonitized. However, creators don’t want to get demonitized so they bow down. There is still freedom just as long it’s not some extreme stuff.

There were so much more websites back then. Now my google search result is mostly reddit

Does the ublock addon also do the cat and mouse game with Google when google patches ad blocking with ublock?

Unfortunately, you need monetization to keep going. If creators didn’t, they wouldn’t have folded to YouTube monetization rules and just kept posting whatever they wanted. Basically, YouTube demonitezes then crrators have folded to just censoring their videos instead of pushing back because of money.

Maybe add Bilibili, TikTok, Facebook, and Dailymotion to the list. Yes, they also have ads but they are not that strict about ad blockers.

Reddit ban people -> people look for alternatives

I handle so many text files in my job and LLMs help make the scripts for me to handle these text files. I know it is important to at least know stuff like regex but I am not a superhuman. It is difficult for me to heavily specialize in scripting while also specialize in the technicalities of my job. To help show why it is difficult to specialize scripting, I work with hardware description languages which have a different syntax from scripting languages. Handling different languages causes confusion on the proper syntax even with a basic if else statement because the syntax is different between languages.

Aside from this, it can also help me automate describing what the sequences I created in the file for easy documentation. I just have to instruct the “patterns” it needs to look for. I just need to proofread the output and do minor fixes.

You can just set it to desktop mode. It happens when scrolling on mobile. Or, just stop using reddit altogether

It was on my very first start. I tried closing then opening the app but it didn’t fix the issue. I know opening Google Maps will fix this because this also happens on Pokemon Go when the GPS location is inaccurate. Opening Google Maps seems to trigger a better algorithm for GPS. Not sure if this is device specific though or due to power saving mode.

I guess Google play hasn’t served me the latest version yet. I will wait for it and try again. I am on version 1.2.11

I think a lot less people care about consoles now. People are moving over to mobile, not necessarily solely Android or iOS, but stuff like Switch or Steamdeck.

I have tried it. So far, I had to open the Google Maps app while the app is open so it will exit “Waiting for GPS.” Maybe for it to trigger the location service. Also, I think the map will be friendlier if it can be rotated based on the compass or manual rotation by pinch. The current setup would be fine only if you are already familiar with the roads in the area. But, for a free app, I like that there is an alternative i can use for Pokemon Go or Ingress.

Sad, i forgot i bought reddit stock. Imma sell now.

The ban just because i used a vpn is crazy there. I’m taking refuge here at lemmy
