Google has definitely gotten worse in the past few years and it's fucking impossible to find any articles or news or academic papers or anything on any topic that doesn't fit the opinion of Washington or Langley.

Anyone have any recs on what else to use.

DuckDuckGo has been a “good enough” option for me the last 5 years. A couple times a year when I’m not getting good results, I try the same search on Google and don’t get anything better.
