Welcome to /c/blogging!
This is a community for posting interesting, insightful, or even personal blog posts. You can advertise your own blog, or share other blog posts you find interesting.
Since this is the programming instance, expect many posts to be related to computer science. General blogs are still welcome as well!
Rules:
-
Don't be rude. Duh.
-
Don't spam your own blog. Try to limit self-promotion to only once or twice per week.
Looking to start your own blog? Check out Bearblog, Write.as, WordPress (which you can host yourself as well).
If you're tech-savvy, check out Hugo!

The problem with search engines is that they try to be as objective as reasonably possible, which means that they don't pick Website A over Website B just because it has better content. What matters is metrics and being favorable to the algorithm.
I agree, but on the other hand, shouldn't a search engine do exactly that, search for the best content?!
You'd think, but it boils down to just showing you the most popular content, even if it's just clickbait and advertisements.
and they do it, except that they show the content that's best for the search engine's company.
