@jeder that part is actually the responsibility of the search engine, not the indexer

@Mae @jeder aren't they using the bing api, realtime? unless i'm wrong about this, i don't see how they could generate their own descriptions with acceptable performance

@mei @jeder yeah no clue, seems really weird but look at this
Search results for "otokonoko pharmaceuticals". All the website descriptions are written in the same style, using third person pronouns > Otokonoko Pharmaceuticals sells adult products only for consenting adults. You need to use Bitcoin or other cryptos to buy from them and check their newsletter for updates. > Users share their experiences and concerns about buying hormones from otokonoko pharmaceuticals, a Chinese supplier of raw materials for transgender people. Some claim the products are safe and reliable, while others warn of possible scams and risks.
