This article isn't worth reading—just consider it my personal rambling.
But if you're also fed up with CSDN results in search engines, check out this blog. If possible, consider ditching Baidu and Bing search. Of course, I set Bing as my default search engine only because I want to free-ride on KFC coupons.
While it's not impossible that CSDN hosts some good blogs—I myself have written a few pieces there and even had them labeled as high-quality content—many of us share the feeling that CSDN is full of copied or meaningless content. Plus, CSDN’s paid resources are downright greedy. After launching my own website, I deleted all my old posts there.
Today, while searching for myself via Bing, I accidentally stumbled upon these two articles introducing one of my open-source repositories with many stars. So I took a look at their content.
Now comes the rant:
First, the user IDs of these two articles are nearly identical—clearly mass-created accounts. Even the article IDs are consecutive. Hard to keep a straight face.
Then I checked the content:
This project mainly uses JavaScript programming language.
Wait—what? I wrote this in Python! How could they get it so wrong? The article then proceeds to describe installation steps as if it were a JavaScript project.
Scrolling down, you’ll see: "Authorship statement: Some parts of this article were assisted by AI (AIGC) for reference only." Hah. Using AI-generated garbage as content?
The other one is slightly better—it at least recognizes it’s Python—but still gets key details wrong.
Ugh. It feels like CSDN is mass-producing junk to promote its own GitCode platform, polluting search results (searching for "MiJia API" now brings up top-ranking results from CSDN).
Honestly, GitCode’s earlier stunt of mass-migrating GitHub users and repositories was already hard to believe. Now this just makes my opinion of CSDN drop another notch.
Time to remove CSDN from my search results entirely.
