Chris has previously expressed his distaste for the "let me Google that for you" site.

However, if someone posts a question that shows zero effort, which the poster could easily have solved by typing their question into a search engine and reading some of the results, then "google it" can be a perfectly valid response.

Aside from the ongoing enshitification of Google's results, the main reason for it becoming less useful as an answer is the huge number of almost-identical questions with "google it" as the answer, which push the actual answer further down the list. But that's not an argument against "google it" answers; that's an argument for closing the low-quality zero-effort questions so that they're not indexed by search engines.
