Repl index wasteland

[Jojoshua]

The repl is a great tool but search engines like Google are too good at returning results for svelte related items. I wanted to relay my experience and see if it resonates with anyone else.

What ends up happening when I search for help or libraries instead I get gobs of top results that are all random repls that were maybe..

• old bugs repros in svelte
• old bug repros in some 3rd party svelte library
• random repls that I don't know why they exist. I try to take the url and search Google trying to see if there is a github issue linked in a comment to this for context (usually fails)
• random repls that don't compile /load properly (usually old)

Possible resolution?

• don't index them
• delete repls from older versions of svelte (that aren't saved)
• enforce users to add context to github issue or stack overflow if it is allowed to be search indexed, or saved past 180 days, or something!
