They really enshittified the internet so hard that it’s more convenient to have these bulky ass (expensive too if you don’t get second hand…) books that you have to flick through and find room to store and try not to spill shit on and stick little bookmarks in to save commonly used recipe, god damn.
For years I used a search engine, and used Pinterest a lot too to save recipes and categorise them. But the SEO slop, the AI slop, the ads…. It’s just become horrific half the time. I did try downloading a few eBooks and pdfs but the format is really not great for cookbooks.
If anyone has any recommendations for sites or apps that aren’t fucking terrible I would love that. Especially 
ones.
Every recipe on the internet is the new cottage cheese and egg protein fad bullshit and its pissing me off. Been having lots of fun just experimenting and inventing my own stuff instead and some of my creations i like more than recipes i get anywhere else
