If we could get circa 2010 Google back people would not waste nearly as much time with “AI”.

#22Too bad I cannot zoom into the image in my phone. Even tapping on it does not enable me to really see it much larger.
Yep. Its a shit website, talking about a shittier website.

#23Seems perfectly tailored to the product being sold and the customers paying for it
Product being search users. Customers being advertisers.

#24They still get away with it as ‘only’ 1% complain and Google thinks they don’t matter. We built our entire company for that 1%.
Hey freediver,
I bought a kagi shirt in the initial batch, got it, and then after one wash it unraveled. Your support team was great and gave me a coupon for a replacement shirt, which I ordered, yet it never shipped. Could I get that shirt :D

#25Google frequently ignores entire words in a search query or gives thematically similar but utterly irrelevant results.

#26I'm not using an ad blocker; when I search for Midjourney on Google the real thing is my first result; I don't even see any sponsored content. Not sure what's happening for OP. (Please don't read this as a defense of Google on the whole.)
Piggybacking on to provide a screenshot since I also see no sponsored content and Midjourney is my #1 result, well above the fold. [1] https://i.imgur.com/Oxo4FJl.png
This is exactly what I see with adblock turned on. When turned off, the first two results are ads.

#27When I search for "midjourney" without an adblocker a bunch of times, I'm getting:
- No ads, with correct midjourney.com as the top result, about half the time
- A legit ad for midjourney.com with the title "Your Imagination, Unlocked", the other half the time. It's the only ad, and the correct midjourney.com is also still directly below it as the first organic result
So both seem fine for me. I've never seen ads on Google with the kind of formatting shown by OP either.
Obviously everybody's search experience is different, based on geography, profile, who else is running ads for those keywords, Google runs different formatting experiences as A/B testing, etc.

How will you fight the inevitable slide that happens if you ever got on top? I’m convinced Google started with the absolute best of intentions before the money and greed turned them into a horror movie villain.
