While Reddit is atrocious without Google, Google is my Reddit search engine, given how its algo is gamed. I miss the day when I could get more than 50 pages of results and still found something useful from some really obscure sites. Now it just stops you after a few pages.

I use 4chan's anime and manga recommendation charts. Found a lot of hidden gems from there.

Discovering good stuffs by yourself is fun too. This is how I learned great mangas by Ryo Ikuemi and Takako Shimura.

Google is almost impossible to use when I search for solutions to maths problems. The first few pages are dominated by those sites gaming Google's algorithm and their articles usually don't help.
