      Oh god, yes.
      I could type in a question ten years ago and could usually get an answer in the first page or so.

      I asked a question yesterday (about floor tiling) and got “Tiles? You want tiles? We’ve got tiles! Get your tiles here!”

      “No, I want an answer about flooring.”
      “FLOORING? You want flooring? We’ve got flooring! Get your flooring here!”

      “Ok, fucking hell. Ok how do I join 2 types of substrate together…”
      “MUTHERFUCKING, substrate? You want substrate? We’ve got…”

      Then I gave up looking. Maybe it was always like this and I used to be more tenacious looking for answers.
