Excluding via search works but there is also a script [0] - not affiliated - which you can use to block other domains as well. [0]: https://www.jeffersonscher.com/gm/google-hit-hider/ https://www.jeffersonscher.com/gm/google-hit-hider/

  even google had their own extension to do this few years ago until they deleted it from the chrome web store, personal blocklist was called. There is now another alternative, ublacklist https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublacklist/pncfbmialoiaghdehhbnbhkkgmjanfhe?hl=en https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublacklist/pncfbmi...

-site:pinterest.* (hmm, I have to put something here or else the asterisk disappears.)

  This is the better option, since it does not hide sites which simply contain the word "pinterest", but are not pinterest.

  There's a Chrome extension called Unpinterested! [1] that automatically adds this to all Google Image search queries. [1] https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/unpinterested/gefaihkenmchjmcpcbpdijpoknfjpbfe https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/unpinterested/gefa...

  There was an extension from Google but they discontinued it. 3rd party alternatives exist though.

Google has given up on improving search, much like Microsoft did with IE6 when it became the dominant player. Only real competition would force them to start improving again. Here is my own userscript that removes any matching URL portions from Google search. It does it in a fancy way with stylesheets so that you never see the Quora, etc results even temporarily before they're removed. It also fixes Google Images to link directly to images again, removes all the tracking URL obfuscations, and more. https://code.byuu.org/google https://code.byuu.org/google Should be more robust than the other alternatives listed, but if not, let me know. I'm always up for improving it more. Contributions also welcome.

  Could you also make it to remove google amp?

    I only use the script on my desktop, and so I've never seen an AMP result. I'd need to be able to use the 'inspect element' developer tool on mobile I suppose in order to see how to filter them. Not even sure the script works on mobile though.
