Comment on Over the past ~20 years, Google became the de facto entry point for learning new skills and information. Google also sucks now. This is a really big problem.

I see your point. It’s just for me worked couple of times well.

Example: I have hardware Steam Link hooked up to my TV. It had this issue where screen would freeze but game/audio would continue on, but menu would work half a time if not in game. I tried to look up the issue and found no lead. Adding “reddit” didnt help either. Only vague discussions, and dead-end leads.

ChatGPT prompt gave me couple of options where the 2nd option was to disable hardware encoding which fixed my issue.

I went to google same issue right now and still google results on 1st page have nothing about hardware encoding which was an actual fix. 1st link is to reddit where people say hardware encoding didn’t help so I disregarded this fix. Others claim that downgrading gpu drivers solve this issue. It didn’t.

I’d rather google. But lately quality of results are incredibly low.
