Lately, I've been realizing that whenever I search for something online, I mostly look at results from 2020 to mid-2024. Before 2020, much of the information is no longer relevant. Since mid-2024, a lot of it is AI-written and often incorrect. There are entire websites with tutorials and information that are completely wrong. But that's for another post.
