>(why is browser history search still so shit?) Because Google wants people to search using the Google search engine, and see ads while they're at it. That would happen less often if Chrome were properly capable of searching the history. Opera did full text history search a decade ago, but that browser doesn't exist anymore. Also, history is expected not to be tied to the device in the cloud era. What more history data could you scalably sync other than URLs and page titles?
