SEO has made it incredibly hard to find answers without getting spammed by news and blog sites. Places like ask Lemmy help democratize answers through upvotes and downvotes so the quality is higher.

Do you know of any hidden gems for search engines or Q&A sites that contain highly relevant answers without much noise?

You may not like it, but Bing chat, it will cite its sources so even if it hallucinates something you can fact check

I agree, since the heavy SEO push has come about, Bing chat works the best. SEO has ruined search engines, it’s a little like Taco Bell using sand as a filler.

As a former taco bell employee, I am compelled to request that you remove any mention of the refried beans secret ingredient

Taco Bell using sand as a filler.

I'm sorry, what?

Taco Bell adds Silica, also known as Silicon Dioxide. Silicon Dioxide is the most abundant mineral found in the Earth's crust. Silica is found most common as sand or quartz.

Silica is used in the production of glass, fiber optics, porcelain, stoneware, and concrete.

Silica is also commonly added in the production of foods where it is used to absorb water. In Taco Bell's case they use Silica to reduce moisture and keep the meat from clumping together.

Silicon an essential trace element commonly found in the form of Silica helps to guard against Alzheimer's disease, Osteoporosis, and Dementia.

Silicon is also needed for proper bone, cartilage, and tissue health. A deficiency of Silicon can lead to weak bones, tendonitis, bone decalcification, and cardiovascular disease.

Foods rich in Silica/Silicon are Dark Green Leafy Vegetables, Fruits, Nuts, Seeds, and Berries.

LMAO.

Bing only works with Edge AFAIK?

I have heard it is like malware to get rid of macOS lol, I actually installed it, but never uninstalled it because I formatted my Mac for an unrelated case.
