Google Search has gone to shit over the last 6 years.... But now it is so godawful that spam malware websites have begun to exploit how sloppy Google has become trying to shape results.
It's beautifully ironic to see that shitpile of a search engine crash and burn so heavily.
Don't bother with cuckcuckgo, their results are also crap thanks to being tied to bing, and bing may not be as political, but they do the same IGNORE EVERY TERM THAT ISNT TRENDING crap google does.
I use www.startpage.com and yandex.ru . The latter is obviously Russian but does little to shape results that are not in Cyrillic.
Both are the closest thing we have remaining to a circa 2008 google; where 70% of your search terms are actually honoured and not just disregarded for trending hits and political censoring.

IGNORE EVERY TERM THAT ISNT TRENDING
What do you mean by that?
I still get results for SaidIt and pirate sites in DuckDuckGo. It finds most of what I look for.
I would really like to be able to run my own instance of a search engine, though, that can crawl certain areas of the web like Reddit a bit more thoroughly, because occasionally I have a hard time finding certain obscure Reddit posts I remember.
use the following search parameters to narrow your results:
e.g. sub:pics site:imgur.com dog
sub:pics site:imgur.com dog
advanced search: by author, sub...
~5 users here now
This is Saidit's main sub for things related to the saidit.net website itself.
If you need help with using this website or related tools, post in /s/help. If you want a place to post any topic to the community, try /s/whatever or /s/asksaidit. If you want to create a wiki page, use /s/wiki.
