Tech guys don't use Google search anymore. It's not just censored. It just sucks. Perplexity is better. And you can set it as default. Here's how to fix your search in thirty seconds:

Yes, many of us stopped using traditional search years ago due to quality and dark patterns. "Search" is far more distributed now. It depends on what I'm looking for: - Product reviews: YouTube - Breaking news: X (advanced search) - Macro: Signal, Telegram groups - Research: ChatGPT + OSINT to vet - Industry: Slack - Competitive Analysis: Crunchbase - Ethnographic/ Local: FB groups The only things I use traditional search for: - Reference image searches - URL lookups I tried Perplexity as my default browser. It suits a very narrow use case. Most of my queries don't require an essay with citations.

@brave search is great.

Looks like Google has already lamed fixing this, at least on the Chrome browser where I tried to follow the steps in the vid. At "Manage search engines and site search", typed in `Perplexity`, and Chrome settings is saying "No search results found." Is this Google being evil⁉️

There is no reason to use Google Chrome in 2024. You can switch to @brave in less than a minute!

The next gen search by @perplexity_ai leverages GenAI and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for a better UX, but the challenges of data ownership and verifiability remain. Decentralize your RAG with open source @origin_trail and solve both.🤝

Google is so fucking useless I actually can’t believe it.

Until now, we mainly prioritized informational queries. But search is about anything you want to do. A navigational query is essentially a link/sitemap as an answer. We made it even easier to navigate the web, especially useful when you set Perplexity as your default search.

Google Search is now dominated by spam. So I made this Chrome extension that queries Reddit in the background, summarizes results and shows them in a sidebar next to google search results. It's like having your own Perplexity! Want it? Let me know!

This idea is either extremely smart or an extremely stupid—no in-between. What if your LLM *is* your search engine? How would you look like inside it? Forget about Perplexity, DeepResearch. What if LLM is your entire Google? Pagination, links and everything - just like the old days: no chat UI, classic Google vibe. If you're unsure what's that mean, watch the demo video below first. We call it LLM-as-SERP (Search Engine Results Page).

Your social posts used to die in 48 hours. But Google… just changed everything. Now you can connect your social media profiles with your Google Search Console, just like you do with your website, you can see which posts show up in Google, which keywords they rank for, and how many clicks they drive. And that flips the entire ROI of social content. Because a post in your social feeds peaked in a day or two. Then it's gone. But then that same post ranking in Google can keep working for months. And the thing is Instagram content has been indexed in search for about a year now. But you just couldn't measure any of it. Now you can. So I’m telling all clients to create content around questions people are actually typing into Google. I use AnswerThePublic for this. Type in your topic, and it shows every question your audience is asking. Then answer one question in every piece of content you create. Because now, every post has the potential to become more than a social post. It can become a measurable search asset that keeps bringing you attention, traffic, and customers long after you publish it.

Is Windsurf better than Cursor? impossible to say, but... it does one thing better: soooo... I spent an hour testing windsurf... and this is what i created... and app called "boop-boop" lol... one thing windsurf does is it searches the internet. If you've been watching my videos you know that i go to perplexity all the time to get code examples and docs. but with windsurf you can just say, "search the replicate top image gen models and add them to the chat we just created" It will search the internet, find the right model then write the code. This is great for replicate and openrouter. You can have one api key in your .env file then just tell windsurf to search for docs for [insert ai model] and it will just add it to your app. Impressed tbh.

The problem is too many want to violate your rights. You can say you don't consent to a search and they will just fake alert their dog and do it anyway.
