A purported leak of 2,500 pages of internal documentation from Google sheds light on how Search, the most powerful arbiter of the internet, operates.

The leaked documents touch on topics like what kind of data Google collects and uses, which sites Google elevates for sensitive topics like elections, how Google handles small websites, and more. Some information in the documents appears to be in conflict with public statements by Google representatives, according to Fishkin and King.

I want a federated social bookmarking site. Not for news or discussion of recent stuff, but to keep some good sites in your account and to share with others.

Searching those and getting results with attached upvotes/downvotes would be ideal

Interesting concept. Like if you could upvote/downvoted the SERP and it actually mattered and wasn't easy to manipulate.

So you want Reddit? We have a federated clone of that. It's Lemmy.

I don't want the latest links, in fact there should be no feed, only search and directories
