Cannot confirm.

I use google maps regularly, and it mostly works fine.

However, google search engine (and youtube recommendations) have gone on a steeply downhill rollercoaster ride. Nowadays, I have difficulty researching even the most basic topics on Google, because it is so clustered with ads that I cannot tell anymore whether any website is genuine or trying to scam me.

YouTube ads for me has collapsed. I either get recommendations for things I already have and it makes no sense to get another one of or militant rightwing crap from Hillsdale "college", or Epoch Times.
