    3. Guessing what you want when you are anonymous is too complicated. We need your search history to tailor your search for you. Please, search engines, hear me: you can not simplify the needs and wants of 7 billion people and zettabytes of online content into a single little shitty search box! It's too complicated! At this point the only thing these search engines are good for is for finding the URL of something you already know the name of. It's a phone book. I type Hacker News on google, it tells me its phone number: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/">https://news.ycombinator.com/</a>.

  3. An unofficial, alternative interface to Hacker News
    Comically, when I google hackernews or even "Hacker News" I often get the other Hacker news first. Finding my preferred UI https://hckrnews.com/ that's not even in the first page of results. Rajat's version https://hckrnws.com/... Nowhere to be seen. Google is becoming a mediocre phone book.
