    Google search completly failed to find what I was searching for

    I searched for how long does it take to install dotnet48 in wine. It totaly failed to find the answer. Must be something like a .02% chance of a google search failing so badly.
    Just to remind users and devs that Ubuntu and its flavors have a long way to go to be as usr friendly as they should be.

    Hi steve7233.

    that is an interesting question.

    As to not finding stuff, I have run across the same thing myself. Google is very biased in it's returns for a LOT of things.

    Because of that I have used nothing but DuckDuckGo for maybe a year and a half? It also does not track you, and that is not just a "boast" on their part, I do internet security volunteering and it really does NOT track you.

    But, putting that aside I found this as the FIRST return, using Firefox and DuckDuckGo and using the following search query
    dotnet48 installation WINE
    http://docs.simplifier.net/forge/forgeInstall.html

    the very first discussion is about installing dotnet 4.8 using "one click" after installing Wine and Winetricks.

    It says that it "could take 5 to 10 minutes".

      Oddly, my first result using Google is the same one that Woody got from his DuckDuck search mentioning 10 minutes.

            The quality of a web search is directly proportional to the quality of the search terms.

            The difference between genius and stupidity is genius has limits.
