That was why I mentioned "return correct results".

At the moment I am aware of two search engines available to me that doesn't try to drive me crazy by wasting my time on irrelevant results:

- kagi.com

- and search.marginalia.nu

and the second one, while being honest and high quality, has a rather limited index.

Marginalia Search's still a bit hit and miss. Haven't really actively been working on the search result quality lately, been too busy with various chores away from the actual search end of the search engine. It's gotten a bit better, but mostly by accident, through fixing bugs that had knock-on effects on quality.

A directed effort toward unfucking query understanding and index execution is up next on the list of tasks to tackle though. Hopefully it'll make a decent impact.
