Why is this a problem? Can't google index social media silos?

That would explain why I cannot reproduce most of the problems here.

Googling "What you can do is set the FormBorderStyle property to None and do what ever you want with the form using GDI" gives me only 5 clones on the first page and 4 of them are blocked by uBlacklist. The stackoverflow result is above the clones.

First google page when using uBlacklist:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11862315/changing-the-co...

clone: http://62.234.115.194/ask/111862315.html

If I google "winforms change title bar color", I stackoverflow on top and on the first page:

https://newbedev.com/changing-the-color-of-the-title-bar-in-...

http://ostack.cn/?qa=707394/

But this blocks it:

Maybe there is a lot of anti-Google lies in this comment section.

I could not reproduce their problems when I googled the same string.

All of the clone sites you linked are dead links now.

Can I have the exact query and the links to the clones?

What's ramen architecture?

> there is now an epidemic of StackOverflow clone sites

I never saw a single StackOverflow clone site in my life.

Can you tell me the exact query?

Link to the Repo please?

I get mostly the same as the first result.

I only got sites about amusement parks in italy.

If I search for "Barcelona", I get result about the city on positions 6, 14, 21

If I search for "Barcelona city" do not get any results about the Soccer team.

uBlacklist exists

Can you guys give me some good examples of sites that are "SEO crap" or google searches that do not return anything useful? I want to do some experients if I can write a program that takes a search query, hands it to google, takes googles result and reorders them a bit.

> This is been my experience with tool reviews as well. Searching for “best intro <power tool>“ yields a bunch of low quality SEO that’s just pulled from Amazon.

Cannot reproduce.

> I’m trying to addresss this in my own way by making long term product reviews of stuff I own, but I wish other people and companies did the same thing.

Link?

I have never seen a Github issue clone or StackOverflow clone in my life.

From https://github-wiki-see.page/

GitHub Wiki Search Engine Enablement (GHWSEE) allows non-indexed GitHub Wikis to be indexed by search engines.

This site will be decommissioned to redirect old links once the block is lifted or GitHub produces some other solution to index GitHub Wikis in harmony with their SEO concerns.

I do not see any wrongdoing from github-wiki-see.page here. They don't even amke money from it. Quite contrary, I do think that this is a useful project.

I know of uBlacklist, and it's nice, but I think python scripting can be more powerful than a simple Blacklist.

Thank you very much

??? I cannot parse that sentence.

Link to the Repo please?

uBlacklist can blacklist domains on google

Source/Proof?

Can't confirm. My results: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_testing https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/symptoms-testing/t... https://www.testing.de/ https://www.bundesgesundheitsministerium.de/en/coronavirus/i... https://www.atlassian.com/continuous-delivery/software-testi...

Yes

I wish there was a hackable search engine where you could e.g. write a python script that moves all websites down that have ads or appear in some list.
