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.
I just evaluate the available products based on price and features.
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.
