@twitter.rip

this is worth noting and also the case with many other search engines, including duckduckgo, which is what i use (it's not very good either)

Another fun thing is that Google searches are personalized so two people can Google the same thing and get different results! Or even just different phrasings of the same search can have wildly different outcomes (although that's less surprising)

Yeah I mean to be clear I'm not totally against some personalization, like if I search "burrito place" it makes sense to surface places near me. It would be nice if personalization was more transparent though instead of silently warping your search
