I pretty much only use Google for news searches these days. Even then, it’s mostly just to get a surface-level view before cross-referencing with other engines for anything important.

There’s so much content getting buried now.

If you’re looking for anything remotely niche or legally gray, like sports streams or ebooks, you’re often better off using Yandex or you’ll never find it.

The old Google search engine that used to properly index and surface the open web has been gone for a long time.
