DAE feel like DuckDuckGo is now just as good as google for the vast majority of searches?

Not because DDG got better, but just because google got worse.
google is still better for site-specific searches, and google scholar still has minimal AI slop

You seriously can't type whatever dae means?
I’ve been online for almost thirty years and have never - knowingly - seen “dae” as an abbreviation.
I don't believe you. DAE has been an extremely common abbreviation for well over a decade at least.
TIL I’m a liar…
DAE is a fairly common acronym on online forums, often used in titles such as these. You could have used Google (or DuckDuckGo) to learn its meaning 😊
It's simply "does anyone else."
Never saw that abbreviation before, but my assumption is it's "does anyone else" since I can't think of anything else that'd make sense in this context
I can. Be nice and I might.
If you wish to be understood, choose your words more carefully. If you wish to be treated with kindness, drop the defensiveness, learn to process feedback objectively, and take communication seriously. No one is being unkind or unreasonable here, except you.
That initial comment is quite pointed...
Yours is pretty over the top as well, lol.
“No one knows what the heck dae means you lazy bum. We invented words for a reason, try using them. If you’re illiterate then maybe try a YouTube video essay. “
If someone said that, sure… but no one did. Perhaps the Original Poster needs to take communication more seriously and less personally.
I think you're making a significant deal out of something that is quite minor, personally. It's okay, though. It's minor, so we can agree to disagree. Cheers!
The basics of human communication is nothing important at all. 🤡
It's an abbreviation on the internet. Do you act this way any time you see TIL, wtf, eli5 or other. Or are you just sour you don't know this one
You’re entitled to your opinion. Is there anything else you’d like to say?
Chill out, man. This isn't parliament. Everything doesn't have to be communicated as if we're drafting laws.
Communication styles vary greatly, and tone is dependent on setting. What OP posted was completely fine. No need to throw around clown emoji 😝

This isn't the gotcha you think it is. There's a slight difference in using a well established acronym vs. a personally made-up one 😅
You're essentially getting upset that someone used a word that you aren't familiar with. With that, you're comparing someone using this unfamiliar word to the use of a non-existant word.
When you encounter a word you dont know, you look it up in a dictionary. You don't call out the author on their communication skills (rudely, mind you).
I'm really trying to be cordial here, and I really don't mean to cause upset, but you must see where I'm coming from, no?
