I often get annoyed when I Google/ddg something like "python3 sort list in place" and get some blog, w3schools, and geeks for geeks, before I get the standard python docs. Just tell me if it's [].sort() or sorted([]) !
Honestly for that kind of question I want the docs more than I want stack overflow.
Maybe I should just bookmark the docs instead of using search, come to think of it. But if your search prioritizes official docs that sounds like a plus.
Another option aside from bookmarking is DDG bangs, I have DDG as my default search, so I can just type
!py sort list
into the address bar and go directly to the python documentation.
