What exactly changed here?

ISP can’t see pages. They can see domains or IPS but that’s it.

It’s called Dead Sea effect and can be a killing factor to an IT company.

Sometimes though it can be good overall if company has too many seniors I guess.

No, I'm working on it since a week from scratch. Had a #showerThought idea and since also had some time I immediately started to realise it and here I am now :D Waiting for 300K pages to be crawled so I can add more sources there :D

I’m making one right now. It’s still kinda rough and MVP but soon should be more mature and useful. Try it out: https://kukei.eu

Thanks for the kind words!

[–] sznowicki@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Thanks but don't expect too much yet. Many sources are still missing. If you notice something should be there but it's not even being crawled feel free to reach me one Mastodon or add it directly via PR here: https://github.com/Kukei-eu/spider/blob/main/index-sources.js

Another person in real life told the same. Adding to the backlog!

I'm on iPhone 12 mini. I love that small design and I strongly believe phones should be small.

Thanks for the good words! Highly appreciate it!

  1. SO and Reddit are on the TODO list. It even had SO (in the bottom indeed) once but not via crawling, via SO Search API. It has very poor quality results and was super slow so I had to remove it while thinking of a better solution. Crawling entire SO might be little too much of this project at this state tho but if I have enough courage and hours at night I might parse that 20GB stack overflow archive dump and try doing something useful with it.

Same for Reddit but here I have mixed feelings about it in general and hope it's going to die soon being replaced by amazing Lemmy communities.

I also used to type some question and end with "reddit" in Google to get good quality content, but here with kukei the experiment is whether blogosphere can replace it properly when index is promoting it.

  1. Why blogs?

This is my main thing. To promote good quality blogs that I tried to follow via RSS but somehow never did. Having them all indexed (and more, some Mastodon community gave me amazing links to index) makes me actually visit them often.

For the "SEO cancer" that where curation comes into play. Before crawling I check unknown blogs to me and decide whether something goes in or not.
