The enshittification continues.
I recently switched my default search from Google to DuckDuckGo: Google has begun refusing to find anything while exact same search on DuckDuckGo just works. Google is slower because I have to think+ignore first half of the page due to Ads/SEO crud.
maybe try the inurl operator
Between this and Amazon it's almost completely useless to search anything through them. You just need to go to forums to get recommendations and reviews
Wrong. I regularly use "site:" all the time.
I've been pretty happy with my selfhosted SearX. I think maybe I've used google for so long that I don't know how to properly use other search engines. Bing never seems to give me the results I want.
Weird. I gotta check out that Cookie and Kate recipe, though!
There's https://redditle.com/ if you just want reddit results. I've had it bookamrked and find it pretty useful.
My search engine results have been so dogshit lately, this just makes it worse. Glad I don't use Google anymore (even though all of them are bad regardless).
This is a tragedy. I will have to see if this still works on Bing
