Have we reached peak internet information overload when doing internet searches.

Years ago i found searching for information on the internet, including youtube and so on, was not that difficult.   Some well chosen key words and you could often find what you wanted.

These days I search for something and just get bombarded with lots of useless links.  Even youtube, there seems to be more and more wanna be populist with shit channels so when you are searching for something specific, you again get bombarded with these useless crap videos.

Wouldn't it be nice if this were the peak?  ;)
JPortici:

I went back to school part time just to gain access to the university library, like books are the new black. I am done with youtube with its constipated wanna be's pointing at things and click bait titles that have nothing to do with the content. I want milk that tastes like real milk. Not people thinking for me and telling how to think.

So its back to books as a source of information and facts.

So it's actually beneficial in the end. ;D
