Basically, like searching diving suit thickness, and google ignoring "suit" and "thickness" (until i specifically put those two words in quotemarks), and only showing me results for diving.
Google search 'reservoir cats' and it will completely ignore what you actually search for in favor of the mainstream result. The effect is basically that you can't sesrch for 'reservoir cats'!
Even putting something opposite or unrelated to the highly mainstream result will have no effect.
Its completely entirely ridiculous and makes the search engine seem like a facade.
If I search for Palp fiction it shows me pulp fiction results but asks if I really meant Palp fiction, if I say yeah I really meant that it shows me Palp fiction with a message did you really mean pulp fiction.
on edit: some of the palp fiction is headline palp friction.
Side note: both duckduckgo and google gave me correct results for that specific search. Turns out "reservoir cats" is a movie and a simpsons episode.
I don't know of a good general internet search engine, so I tend to stick to the sites I know will provide answers that'll work for me, which is a shame for discovering new content.
