Ask HN: How to do literal web searches after Google destroyed the “ ” feature?
7moritz7 Monday, September 18, 2023I used this quite frequently but since Google """"improved"""" it last year (there was a popular HN post complaining about this) it doesn't work anymore. Search for a domain name with quotation marks for example just recombines the contents of the domain and returns a bunch of unrelated content completely cluttering what I am looking for. Until last year it used to return no search results if there weren't any exact matches, which is the whole point.
Does someone have a work around for this phenomenal Google decision?
