> Google search barely works anymore.
This seems a bit exaggerated. Can you provide some examples? Also for the problem you are encountering, what alternative do you use? I have no issues with Google search that I can think of.
> Their phones have all been pretty buggy. They have their place but total quality of their software has been crazy lackluster and nowhere close to competing with apple.
I can't speak for their phones, but the Android OS has been rock solid for me for years. I loathe the Apple experience - on both iPhone and Macbook Pro - so this idea that they can't compete with Apple is not something I can agree with. I'm not even sure if it's a fair comparison as they have different goals aside from the mobile experience.
I agree with everything else you said though.

- COMMENT___ 4y agoI find myself using the `site:` keyword much more often than before when searching for quite obvious stuff using Google Search. The first page of search results always consists of some useless SEO-optimized shit or is simply missing relevant results. A month ago or so, when I was researching some MS tech topics, Google Search results did not include any links to the docs.microsoft.com website. However, the results included some Chinese mirrors of docs.microsoft.com with weird names (blablahxyz321.GFWproxy.com or something like that). This never happened before, so something is really broken. And it's just one example of many. I have to switch between three search engines thorough a day, and it's frustrating.
