    This is one of the main reasons I use Kagi. I have sites like fandom and fextralife blocked in my search results.

    One of the things I miss about early internet years was all the independent fan sites and forums people had. Now, so much is just posted to these garbage platforms that control everything.

      Yes!! Gotta love Kagi and the ability to tailor search results to be exactly what you want.

      and recently the AI written garbage “gamer” websites have become a problem as well. You can tell instantly that some ai just collected and regurgitated a bunch of text that doesn’t even make sense.

      Now I pretty much stick just to the fan created wikis. Stuff like bg3.wiki and uesp.net

      I use Metager instead - it’s FOSS and also has an option to filter out choosen domains from the search results.

        Fextralife embeds their twitch stream into their site, artificially inflating their twitch viewer numbers, which in turn hurts smaller streamers since fextralife will be sorted first by viewer count.
