Scumdar must be so proud of the slop that Gemini and others can do.

Bing is just as bad, its dam unoriginal. Has no one got a brain cell at Bing to think rather than copy. If they want to pull people away from Google, they need to be original. That said, based on referrer string, both DDG and BING are sending more than double the number of visitors that Google are. Imagine if one of those had Google's monopoly, I'm be receiving 10x what I am now.

Seeing 25%+ traffic drops on Saturday and Sunday on multiple sites. But there wasn't much traffic left on these sites anyway so Google can EATT shit.

The real problem is not ranks but all the Googleshit at the top of the serps. AI Slop Overviews, Ad Spam, those People Also Piss Boxes, etc. are splattered all over the user's screen like that nasty shart on the wall in the movie Bad Grandpa. Some have called organic results footer links now that don't get seen so they can't get clicked. So why bother with core updates at all since Google doesn't want users to see organic results anyway and instead drown users in Googleshit? Updates are just a liars tool designed to give hope where no hope exists. Sure, we might get a little bump in traffic when they turn AI Slop Overviews, ads, etc. off during an update, but watch them use this update to take the attention off of more Googleshit they slide into the serps to steal more traffic. I can say #1 ranks didn't get traffic before this update and still won't when it's over.

Jantje commented on Google December 2025 Core Update Intense Impact

I’m basically seeing the same thing. Ai slop is ranking surprisingly high. Call me old fashioned, but I’ve always created everything without Ai. I put my visitors first and to me that means taking them seriously. That's why I don’t use Ai. That decision has now come at a high cost because my website (which is over 10 years old) has been completely wiped out.

MrSEO commented on Google December 2025 Core Update Intense Impact

My traffic is down.. Now. Noticing top 20.Results are one page websites with 120k visits in competitive niche.. A few repurposed domains with AI slop.. Actual good quality competition sites along with my own destroyed.. For now, maybe it's the garbage floating to the top first before it kicks in? This one is strange

I haven't seen any significant change in metrics. It's not encouraging that most reports seem to be negative.

YouTube is a short term solution. Rumble as well. There is no guarantee they will last but if you are stuck, it's worth a shot for a few months. Better than writing blogs that won't get traffic or ranked.

googleisjoke commented on Google December 2025 Core Update Rolling Out

big true but still they are one of the biggest so why not to ride the wave? with videos it's little different than with articles, so training AI is not much relevant for let's say synth review channel, where you physically own a synth and have to demonstrate it to your taste. AI is powerless here, also people watch people because they demonstrate it to their taste, AI have no taste, no personality, nothing, just regurgigating old crap. and even in a ultra long term scenario, if it becomes so intelligent that it can make stuff on its own? as I said - people would just watch people as they own the personality, robots don't.

Merry Christmas everyone, 8% down every day I am actually wondering if Google are just the government because a company would not do this to itself. It is self-sabotage on a massive scale.The articles produced by AI are just not good in my niche, they too robotic and don't have the full information.

The only thing surprising is they didn't add all Googlers favorite, Bluecry. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f00f3318d4e89ad75e6d3bd194e4e940a909c04bd26a39cfa52d9d0809bb1bb4.jpg

Lol! So true. Between the overload of commercials and personalized ads YouTube is almost unwatchable now, especially if it's a long video like a podcast. Obviously it's by design by those a55holes to force people to pay premium to skip it.

It could not even do me a youtube thumbnail the other day. It is not good at all and people are actually just sticking with social media now.

All made on our work, our writing and underpaying publishers and over charging advertisers for years on end. So wrong on all fronts.

Wonder how many users use Sora, I think it is in the thousands, they say 4.5 million app users but that is not active. I doubt it is used much tbh. This compared to the billion people a day trying to find a WEBSITE

It seems they all investing in each other, and bumping up the value of the companies. Interesting I think the EU has threatened something with the USA bonds that could bankrupt the USA I read if the US is supporting Russia. I need to read that news story below but I don't think the EU like this big tech strategy of stealing the worlds work and USA profiting from it (or not) just big egos with brainwashed tech people who just don't understand that the internet needs to remain created by people. There is going to be some big problems coming. _____ Europe US debt sell-off: European governments are quietly debating an extraordinary economic countermeasure as fears grow that US president Donald Trump may strike a deal with Russia that sidelines Ukraine and threatens continental security. According to internal assessments shared within Europe, officials are considering a drastic response: dumping vast holdings of US government debt to destabilize the American economy if Washington abandons its commitments to Ukraine.

It's not worth it right now. I really don't understand why this has suddenly all happened to us. Server companies from USA need to do something about this tbh

Me too. I am seeing China and Singapore bots are now 40% of my traffic. I do hope Google just revert back and remove the AI overviews, it is drastically costing them so much money and their business. And, of course my income too. So sad it has come to this. They have lost six figures on my site this year in their share and for what, AI overviews that don't have ads. Very sad.

Google owns Youtube. I'd rather have a colonoscopy then upload a video for Google to use to train their AI and fill with ad spam. Well maybe I'll ask the doc to record a video of the colonoscopy and upload that since Google loves to promote shit. Googleplex is like a small intestine anyway because that's where all the Googleshit comes from.

I have looked for a long time for something like that - a lot of the slacks/discords for news publishers are mostly just networking/jobs/etc. Surprised there isn't something where people can chat through the algo updates, etc.
