I love when I search for multiple words and the search engine just completely ignores one of them
Even last year, it was less bad. Hell I don't think Google started flat out ignoring search terms until 2021. It's a wrestle to find the search terms with no paying sponsors that still relate to what one wants, to find things by relevance instead of profitability for Google, or whoever.
The following words in your search terms have been excluded because they are too common:
thewho.
remember when you could use boolean operators in search engines? "blue" AND "ones"?
the new strat is to use
-"common but unique enough phrase"
unique enough that it will filter most of the trash it gave you that run, but not what you're looking for.
and to just keep stacking those on the end of the query. but be careful: the cap is 47 minus elements per query. I hit the cap more than once a month.
I've taken to calling this "cleaving" because it doesn't make much sense unless you're very interdisciplinary, and that's how the most useful jargon always is
or just use ublacklist to block sites from your local google results forever. does not work on android chrome, or any ios browser that isn't safari. maybe not even safari.
if you're a wizard ninja you can do the android firefox nightly addon trick but like. thats so much work.
