    what I find annoying is when I google a word I want a definition for and a company with that name dominates the results. It’s like when singers make songs out of phrases and ruin the phrase for everyone. Get all this capitalism out of my language I have to live in this language

      Almost any word I bother to look up is first and foremost some bullshit bazinga techbro startup according to browser searches. I have to insist “dictionary” as part of the search to have a chance of not getting a bunch of startup shit peddled at me instead.
