Make sure you use the right type of search engine for the type of information you want.
There always have been the nick picks. But now sometimes there is barely any connection between the post and the comments. Like two people with multiple strokes distributed between them having an angry teams call.

Bottom-posting eMails and Usenet posts.
Fuck you, Microsoft. Bottom-posting replies is the correct way to reply.
German here, I remember teaching people email etiquette and reminding them: βNo TOFUβ (Text Oben, Full quote Unten).
Means sth like βtext above, full quote belowβ
Is bottom-posting some kind of kink I'm not aware of?
The same people who warned us about the dangers of the internet and not to believe everything, are now the ones readily falling for and spreading conspiracies and lies from social media.

I suspect now it was never about "don't believe everything", it's just been "believe what I believe". Which I suppose follows Nietzsche's thought on the transition from religion to ideology.
