All I want is a search engine that 1. doesn't make moral judgements on the results relevant to a search, 2. filters out ai and ad farm results by default, and 3. can be toggled to effectively search web 1.0-style forums.
Search results were amazing back in the day. There were like a couple 100 good websites and it was all just text indexes.
The web is simply too big not to do ranked searches.
The big problem is how they are ranked though.
Interesting.
I hope for a new paradigm in web searching. I wouldn't even mind if a search took 5-10 minutes, if it meant a handful of quality results. I easily waste that much time or more sifting through garbage ai and ad-driven results as it stands.
