on a serious note, yacy is good enough to crawl a bunch of sites you like and get much superior search results be it limited to your own interest. google is complete garbage. specially nowadays google just returns unrelated cnn pages. try search for corona virus map, I get tons of news articles talking about the same page but the page is not in the results. whatever you add to the query it keeps returning the same news articles from the same sources. if you populate yacy with pages about the topic you will yield real results.
eventho i'm completely banner blind i suspect my subconscious still picks them up. one time I had to ask for help finding a download button on an almost empty page. i was pointed to the "blank" spot in the middle of the screen and then the button appeared. it was a shocking experience. the wetware addblock is probably storing all the adds? then it uses them for god knows what? a terrible invention, we would do so much better filling heads with productive things?
