    Searching Kubuntu In Search Engine Resulted In Something Weird

    So after using pure ubuntu for quite some times, i wanted to try kubuntu. I heard you can tweak it as much as you wanted unlike the gnome that need bunch of extension. But when I search for kubuntu via the result felt soooo random and all over the place. And the worst part is, none of them showed me the link to Kubuntu.org. At first i thought it was just your usual "search engine getting wrose" type of thing.

    But no. When i searched for another distro. The search result are more sane. They showed each distro main page at least. But for kubuntu, you can check all these images below.

    I wanted to know, IS this just me? or is it actually a common problem?

    Do you guys got the same or similar result? Can you guys try searching KUBUNTU via your favorite search engine and share the result with me.
    IF this is a common thing among us, what do you think the cause was?

    So far only the duck give me proper result. Other SE i tried are Ecosia, bing, google, brave all spitting weird results.​

    Here some other samples.

    They redid the Kubuntu website very recently, and it looks like this is the culprit:

    They have been pinged about it
