      Same.

      Then to deepen this rabbit hole further, I’ll add: so next I did a search specifically for site:wiktionary.org, and it took me to https://fi.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/sematary - I don’t even know what language that is (Google Search says “Finnish - Detected” so uh… that’s probably it).

      That’s right, Google itself is now corpo-speak, and apparently you and I can understand authentically-offered Finnish better than such for-profit “English” (max out the short-term stock bondage for the investors fr fr no cap skibidi rizz).

      The weirdest thing is that DuckDuckGo is my default (I must have re-used an old window or something to even be on Google at all?), and btw it finds the correct answer immediately. But damn this was an interesting digression today!

          All it would take would be to ignore the SEO and focus on actual metrics like the words used on the page and links to & from the site and such.

        The URL begins with “fi”, that’s obviously Finnish.
