I am currently self-hosting a meta search engine instance (searxng), which allows me combine searches from different engines (e.g. Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc), but also to filter out websites that I don’t want to show up.

The only website to make my blacklist so far is slant.co (useless SEO-riddled site that always comes up when I search for software comparisons). I also automatically redirect all reddit.com links to old.reddit.com.

I’m looking to expand this list. So, which websites do you blacklist? Either using software, or just mentally.

    Forbes also just… To put it professionally, ever since they started writing articles on topics none of their journalists know shit about, they just come across as a bunch of idiots to me.

      Well to be fair to the actual journalists, a lot of those articles are published by random people with an agenda that are labeled “Contributor” as opposed to staff.
