You know, when you would search something and what you wanted, you actually got? And not someone else's idea of what you needed?
Bin Google and use DuckDuckGo.

problem is the "someone elses's" is 99.995% commercial.
without seeing user comments there's really no such thing as an honest review site anywhere
(many review sites now filtering, limiting or some not allowing user comments anymore.)
couple of weeks back was looking for a new printer for home
... the amount of bull scat that is out there on the net, research on the net is not fun, not fun at all.
Paying bills and shopping on-line is OK,
but I miss the usenet, (first got on it back in the mid 80's) before business got on it (even heavy involved companies like AT&T/Bell Labs didn't push sales/advert crap through it).
Oh and yes, even back then it had pron, quite a lot: alt.s*x news groups anyone?

I always search variations of "Product X sucks". "Product X is terrible". "Product X never buying again" "hate product X" etc.
then i see what i come up with. i've always found that more honest than review sites. I'll look at maybe one of those reviews to see what features the thing has but that's all. i want to know what people dislike about it before i buy it.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

The reason comments are gone is spambots and trolls.

Really? I am amazed at how well google works. They do such a good job making a ton of data useful.

Oh boy - this is a new strategy … 
we are all used to mails from Google CEO …

I haven't got any such e-mails. It must be because I have dual nationality - Israeli/British.

I think you are just not worthy for such a gratitude of the EU...

Well, obviously. I'm British, and they want to punish anyone who might even be thinking of leaving the EU's paradise.

Ohhhh right. Now I understand.
Yeah, I had a look in my junk bin yesterday, apparently someone has some vids of me whacking off and is going to publish them.
I might get famous!

I got the same a while ago.
"Nice," I thought, "saves me the trouble of sending it out myself."
Imagine my disappointment when I found out it was just a scam and they did no such thing

Yeah, I know right! I thought I might make a new career out of it!
