Google Finance’s redesign is also a disaster, IMHO. I liked the “classic.”
I also don’t remember the last time I used Google search.

Re: Google has abandoned Google News?
#12I suggest replacing google's News tab with Magic! because it's so heavily messed with you cannot make sense of the ranking. For some queries on ongoing events I've seen headlines come up from the last month or older as the first result. How hard you mofos want to suppress information?
Re: Google has abandoned Google News?
#13Now, when I do my traditional searches, a huge majority of some of my searches are from Instagram or other social media sites, not news publishing sites. Many of my results are in foreign languages I cannot even identify. Many of my results are published in foreign countries, not the U.S. as I specified. Now, the most recent failure is that when I specify news published in, say, the past week, it just ignores that se…
I've tried repeatedly and I cannot replicate any of your results. No matter what I search for, the date filter works. What were you searching for? Please share your full queries and have screenshots that capture the URL as well. edit: You also say this occurs in the "huge majority" of the times you search. You give one cropped screenshot that does not even show your own query. As a journalist, please specify whether…
google results haven't been deterministic since pretty much forever now, even if you had the exact URL, exact geographic location, a user profile with the same history, it's not guaranteed you will be able to replicate

#17I really can't get over the way almost every piece of consumer technology/software has gotten worse in the last half decade. These companies are killing every goose they can get their hands on because they are so convinced there is some golden goose out there that will be worth more than all those regular geese combined.

I don't think that will work for what I'm looking for. I'm looking for very, VERY specific subjects like the Attachment Economy, synthetic relationships, and a hundreds others, and I need to know all the stories on this subjects or using these keywords that have been published in the United States in the past week.
Thanks for sharing those requirements. What are the most comparable competitors to Google News today that you would use for this?
Kagi, obviously (disclosure: My son works for Kagi.)

I don't mean replicating the exact order of results, I mean I cannot replicate any of the alleged bugs.
When you're reporting bugs and especially when you're making such a strongly-worded claim, it's best practice to be as detailed as possible. The claim is "a huge majority" of queries are fundamentally breaking logical operators.
My point is that if you're reporting a bug you claim is so systemic it has made the product useles, sharing just one cropped screenshot with zero details about the actual query isn't very helpful.
