SEO is ruining the internet. Give me results for a search, let me choose the sort order optionally. Bring back Boolean operators, or at least make AND and OR work again.

I’d settle with making “verbatim” search the default without having to switch to it every time.

I’m sick of searching for three specific nouns and getting results back that only has maybe one of them
