It uses "Facts over feelings" as a diss against the very group of people who would normally use it

Nowhere did I claim that Sphenisciformes were related to Alcidae,

This debate boils down purely to word usage and prescriptivism vs descriptivism; which order/family of seabirds does the term "penguin" refer to? Who cares! This is entirely Argumentum ad Dictionarium!

Penguins are penguins. [citation not needed]

Penguins are not extinct. [1] [2] [3]

While it is true that great auks are extinct, and that the word "penguin" originally referred to them, the word possibly comes from Latin pinguis (fat) or Welsh pen gwyn (white head). [4]

Penguins do have fat, and some penguins have white heads, so the word applies to them just as much as it applies to great auks. [citation not needed]

The word "penguin" was used to refer to flightless aquatic birds of the order Sphenisciformes as early as the 16th century. [4]

Also, auks other than the great auk are not extinct. The closest living relative to the great auk is the razorbill, Alca torda, in the family Alcidae, the auks. Other auks include the little auk, the parakeet auklet, and the puffin.

Quotation marks and other symbols, when typed in the title of a spoiler tag, show up as broken HTML entities.
This only happens on the normal website. Other Lemmy UIs (Tesseract, old-reddit style, Photon, Alexandrite) are not affected.

Examples of characters:
" becomes &quot;
& becomes &amp;
< becomes &lt;
> becomes &gt;

Example occurrence:

quote, ampersand, less than, greater than " & < >Expected correct result: " & < >
Expected erroneous result: &quot; &amp; &lt; &gt;

Warning: The following spoilers contain full-page screenshots of the phenomenon in question. Do not open on a slow or metered connection.

Is it just me, or are search engines getting worse? (sh.itjust.works)

My main focus isn't on quality of results.

The real problem is, whenever I type a query that's even the slightest bit out of the ordinary, I get no results. Google, Duckduckgo, Startpage, Searx, all of them.

It strains credibility that these advanced pieces of technology could not find anything among billions of websites, when in the past, less-advanced versions of these engines could find results for similar queries among smaller numbers of websites.

To reiterate: My problem is not with SEO, or spam, or AI-generated websites, or irrelevant results. My problem is getting no results much more frequently than in the past.
