In long search routines or deep research I often use quotes to find pages with specific language.

DDG has been my default engine for years now, but by the time I am searching at this level I often have added a !g along the way and am working in Google at that point.

Frankly, these changes don’t alarm me much because I am presuming most Q&A I’m going to be doing going forward will be in chatgpt or a similar service.

In the last few weeks, I’ve taken more and more questions, sometimes spanning a wide but related context to chat gpt.

There are no keyword-stuffed greyhat websites and long serps to dig through with varying formats, styles and recency.

It is just information. And while I am keenly aware chatgpt will spit back complete BS, I have found this problem is not bigger than the problems I face for information seeking via DDG or Google.
