All,
I thought I would share this article. It’s not entirely surprising, yet still sad to see how Google is transforming their Search product into something that’s bad for their users and independent websites, and only benefits themselves and a handful of other big tech conglomerates.
It also seems like using Google is no longer browsing the web, it’s browsing Google, since they’re heavily limiting reasons for people to leave the search page with AI generated answers from crawled websites.
Yeah I caught this shortly after someone who I’m mutuals with on Mastodon posted this:

It’s a real shame that so much stuff is so heavily dependent upon one source of information, one which seems to change things so radically with so many downstream effects; livelihoods here quite clearly are at stake.
Most of the websites that have not seen a decline in traffic are owned and operated by huge media companies.
