> Search sucks primarily because there’s nothing worth searching for anymore.
I thought the same until recently. Google doesn't appear to be indexing/prioritizing anything that's old, infrequently updated, or noncompliant with AMP, even if it's an authoritative source.
People blame SEO gaming but I'd sooner accuse them of alignment tweaking (all old/outdated beliefs are purged; my queries were religious and controversial in nature). For some topics, there is still an entire other internet out there they pretend doesn't exist...that starts on page 1 of fucking Yandex.
Not advocating for Yandex specifically (I don't trust them) but...try other options (Kagi, Bing, etc.).
