FYI, Kagi lets you do this and personalize it as you desire. They even share aggregated stats※ about which domains users choose to block/lower. (Mine generally match these stats.)

You can also do this for free with uBlackList: https://github.com/iorate/ublacklist
This has greatly enhanced my Google experience - easy to ban content farms, AI-generator websites from appearing in Google Images etc.

Kagi shill here. Are they finally applying filters and operands to image searches?
Asking because it was a tough year seeing Pinterest as top filter choice and top result in images (when set as filter=block).
(edit: I just tried searching->image: beautiful quilt patterns. I didn't spot any Pinterest results!)
I have never understood why DDG, etc steadfastly refuse to obey operands in image searches. Most days. Every blue moon operands seem to work. I think.
sidebar: Yesterday I saw Yandex obey quotes in a web search. It was the 1st time I've seen that.

That was a bug, apologies. It should be fixed now.
I sincerely appreciate the diligence. I really did see Pinterest results over a longish span. I may well have only noted their presence and not their absence - skewing my perspective.
Overall, my experience is very positive. I'm on many PCs throughout the day and I miss Kagi when it isn't there.
