Exactly, bro. Quality is subjective, so it's up to the owner of the website to determine the quality of their own content based on their own standards and goals.
Disagree, the search engine needs to make the judgement on the quality.
As a user doing the search, I can't trust the opinions of the website owners, but I have to trust someone. I want to trust the search provider, particularly because I can easily switch if I choose.
yeah search engines better judge the content right. they better use the right signals, like metadata and user engagement, to give users what they want.
and website owners better do their part too, by tagging their content correctly and putting out only the highest quality material.
