Sometimes I add something like "blog" before:2019 to my searches because I want "old" google and not their shiny newer profoundly shitty search. Plus I tend to really like blog results. Wwithout before:2019 google is incredibly insistent in "helping" me by mostly (or entirely) ignoring the word "blog" even if it's in double quotes.
huh thanks for the tip, being on the younger side i've always only ever used the main corporation websites - never really know how to venture outside the main lot
Google calls such stuff advanced operators. They used to be fantastic tools. But the problem now is that google occasionally, intentionally breaks some of them to be "helpful". And you can't disable such help.

Letting corporations control how we access information was always a mistake. Historians will curse us, and the evidence will be a hole.
There must be consequences for the fuckers who did this. They have names and addresses.
