1. The date filter no longer seems to work. For example, if I search for "reddit dating app" and set the date filter to be "Past week" or "Past month", it still shows me results from few years ago.
2. Using quotes for exact matches often doesn't work for me either.
Is this happening for others too?

The date thing is a great example — sites don’t date articles anymore. Another issue is that personal websites are dead, so the stuff that used to be on some professor’s blog are not obscured in Facebook or some awful twitter thread.
I used to be able to get very specific and find lines in source code, for instance. Well, that probably breaks emoji search or something and is near impossible.
It’s always suggesting that I’d rather see something else. Short of typos, it’s NEVER right.
I think there's an opening now for someone to start a new search, just to take it back to what Google used to be.
