The search term lmtbk4mh is found with Brave Search (3 hits so far, but it cannot provide a description of the SVG site). DuckDuckGo Search has zero results at this moment.

The page is old enough that it wouldn’t surprise me if Google and Bing used to index it and are capable of indexing it, but no longer do. A lot of older stuff where you know exactly what’s there just can’t be found any more.

https://www.google.com/search?q=svg.nicubunu.ro seems to surface it, with text; https://www.google.com/search?q=site:svg.nicubunu.ro gets the title, but no more text. I’m curious how it decided what the title was. I wonder if they have some kind of “choose the largest text” heuristic if a title is missing.

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=svg.nicubunu.ro and https://duckduckgo.com/?q=site:svg.nicubunu.ro don’t show a result.

I wonder if you copying the term here in HN (with the link to that site) would pollute the benchmark dataset…

Good point. I wonder if that cat is now too far out of the bag for a deletion of my comments to be of help?

I don’t think it’s that big of a problem – you can still see if the results link to the SVG website itself, and ignore everything else.

There's symmetry at this moment in the results from Brave Search and Google Search looking for lmtbk4mh.

When searching for it on DuckDuckGo, the search engine found your comment via a HN frontend while not finding the original site.
