I remember the days when internet as a whole were simpler in terms of contents and users, and search engines reflected that simpicity. I am not sure if it's possible to go back to those days.



If only there was a large, old search engine, that still had a web index from the days before SEO spam, that it could prioritize over newer results.


Or a search engine with zetabytes of data and the world's largest collection of AI PhDs. It could be possible that they have the advantage over some scam artist smoking cigs in front of a screen at 3am, considering it's their system.


A more complex web landscape doesn't explain why the entire first page of results is very often just ads and e-commerce sites.
