This search should obviously return the official Docker Hub Redis image, https://hub.docker.com/_/redis, but it’s just a bunch of blogs.
On DuckDuckGo the first result is the Docker Hub image, which is what everyone would want.
For anyone wondering, here’s that same query in DDG (zoomed out to show same amount of results)
This is the moment I switch to DDG. I started using google in 2003 and I think I’m done now.
This is definitely what I’d want if I search for this
I had a similar experience today. I wanted to run a battlefield 2042 server and forgot the URL.
(It’s https://portal.battlefield.com)
So I google searched for “Run a battlefield 2042 server” thinking obviously that would lead to that page. Nope, all it gave me were blog posts and wikihow shit.
I was searching how to cast the screen on an Android phone through USB yesterday, and I had to go through pages of “free” Play Store apps and their shitty tutorials, some of which I downloaded, (one had 50 million downloads) two of which were identical skins of each other that wanted payment information and charged $20 a month after a week long trial, to eventually find out it’s a default included option on any Samsung phone and can be found in some settings. Google search has completely gone to shit.
If you’re still looking for a solution, I highly recommend “scrcpy” https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
You asked for docker redis image, received docker.com talking about redis, and redis.io talking about docker
Idk that seems pretty on the point to me
Yeah, I don’t see the problem here. Those are the pages with the download links (and also instructions to use them, for folks who need it)
What did you want, a direct download link to a file? An FTP site?
You literally got what you asked for. There are plenty of examples of Google search sucking, this is you just being pissy because there’s instructions on a download page.
This search should obviously return the official Docker Hub Redis image, https://hub.docker.com/_/redis,
That’s what they wanted and it’s the first result in seemingly every other search engine.
I had moved to DDG a few years ago and enjoyed it until around the middle of this year when I started getting less and less relevant results.
Started using (and yes, paying for) Kagi 3 or so months ago and it’s amazing going back to searches that actually work again. I don’t know how well I’d handle moving back to an ad supported search provider.
man SEO really has managed to break search. There’s so many random blogs that just have pretty much just your search terms in the title and rarely have anything else of use.
Google definitely has its moments of returning crap results, but you chose a terrible example.
Results from both docker and redis, on topic for exactly what you asked for.
Why even use Google at all, when you could search docker hub If that’s what you knew you wanted.
I agree with OP here, these results are not great.
OP searched for the redis docker image, not a tutorial on how to use it, not a tutorial on why redis should be run in docker, and did not search for redis docker docs. While these are relevant, they should be further down, not the top result. DDG gets this right, and I’m pretty sure other search engines do too.
For a total newbie, these results are probably OK, but for a technical person who knows what they want literally as they type it, Google’s results are (excuse my french) simply shit. DDG is miles better at handling this stuff, and they don’t need your personal data to do it well either.
Edit: Just went and searched “redis docker image” in a private tab on Google, and the docker hub image for Redis is not even shown on the first page of results

Oh it’s absolute garbage. It’s virtually impossible to look up anything and get an answer related to your question.
On kagi, the first result is also the docker hub link. This example is not actually that bad though, the first 2 results at least still relevant (from docker and redis domains) instead of some random blogspam (3rd result).
It’s the second result for me.
gafam bad (apple is less bad)
idk… the first two results seem both relevant and authoritative.
That’s why I made my default Chrome search engine duckduckgo
