Google search is dead

long live Google search. /s They have finally managed to make verbatim search unusable. Fuck all the executives with their fingers in that decision. (They probably did this months ago, but today was the first time I've had reason to try finding something specific. Now impossible.)

Not sure what you were searching for, but I have had no problems. I typically use duckduckgo, my search engine of choice because they claim minimal tracking. But after your description of an issue, I searched for self rising flour (pretty specific). Google search worked just fine.

Are you talking about the option behind the Tools button? By default, it's "All results". Click on that and you can switch to "Verbatim".

Dave KreskowiakI've always used verbatim search. Now it doesn't work like it used to, and is quite worthless in comparison to its old behavior.

I was trying to remember the ARM project Microsoft cancelled. 'Microsoft cancelled ARM' would have brought it up quickly with the old verbatim search. Not with the new algorithm. DuckDuckGo has never been as good as the old verbatim search was. I tried it multiple times and gave up on it. Now they all suck.

ps - 'self-rising flour' is not specific. 'self rising flour himalayas' would be kinda specific. The results aren't very great for that, and now include a lot of non-himalayas results.

Sure. But try a search where you want narrow the results to specific terms. Say, something like: Pixel 6 Pro hardware diagrams You'll get diagrams for every pixel ever made. Yes, the p6p is in there but if I'm only interested in the p6p why make me wade thru the dreck if I told it to filter it out? It used to work much better - by which I mean - it doesn't work at all now.

Gave a search string in my language Kannada, and Google search worked just fine.

Perform a search, .e.g self rising floor Under the search bar and above the results I see a row of ovals that are filters. Like images, recipes, etc. Scroll that list of filters to the left and on the far right, the last entry will be tools. You may need to select the "all" filter before it appears.

You get it on the results page, to the right of "Images, Shopping, Videos, News, Maps, ...".

understood. sometimes its better than nothing. Given Microsoft's reach, search results of its activities may be tainted.

It has nothing to do with Microsoft's reach. It has everything to do with correlating search terms to results. Google no longer does that well.
