There have been several posts on HN about Google no longer indexing the entire internet. My understanding is that AI generated content has become so common that Google has become selective about which content it will index. If low traffic sites don't put effort into getting their content indexed then it won't appear in Google results.
It's not only a problem of not indexing.
Sometimes I search for a whole sentence, e.g. the title of a video I know to exist, and it doesn't find it. Then I look for a vague sentence related to the video, and with some luck it finds it.
