After a full year of not thinking about printers, the best printer is still whatever random Brother laser printer that’s on sale.

The Verge published this spam article about the “best printers of 2024” to demonstrate how terrible Google’s search results are. It now appears as the top non-sponsored post if you search “best printer” on Google.

I love a good, informative troll.

      But how do you know what matters in some appliance you didn’t even know existed nevermind how it works?

        I don’t really follow you sorry.

        I can’t think of a time I’ve needed to buy an appliance I didn’t know existed nor how it works ?

        Even if I didn’t really know anything that doesn’t really matter. Usually purchases are heavily influenced by my budget. It’s not a question of what features I need, it’s a question of which product is the most reliable given the amount I want to pay.

            I think you’re over thinking these things.

            There’s just no way I would “research” washing machines. They all work in the same way. They all have the same features. The last time I bought one the deciding factor was a 10 year factory guarantee.

                I can see that your microwave is important to you, but to me “I don’t care” doesn’t really capture how little I care about my microwave.

                I think the one we have is probably the cheapest available when we bought it 8 years ago. The buying decision probably took less than 1 minute, without hyperbole. I only ever use one button, I just press start n times until the timer says something reasonable.

                When buying this stuff I don’t really see a risk of being locked into any bullshit because all microwaves can perform their basic function of heating food.

                    Sorry this just isn’t my experience. I’ve never encountered a microwave which doesn’t start when you press start. If I had one that was faulty I would discard it and buy another one for $20.
