It all of a sudden became TERRIBLE and now I can't find anything? When did this happen? Why did this happen?

This is the thing. It really has become unusable. Trying to find obscure information is insane no matter the keywords. It's always the same results and, ugh, YouTube videos. You can't find parts for older stuff easily, simple answers are gone.

Amazon is similar. Change the keywords all you like you still will get the same 'amazon choice' products and recommended alternatives for whatever you searched for lead to the same list. But i have to agree it really got worse unreasonably fast last few months.
