Also negative modifiers don't work on Google. Quotation marks and the - are both useless so I cant be specific.

Yeah wtf is up with that? That's what sold me on Google originally and now it's gone or completely ignored. I've since switched to duckduckgo. I honestly couldn't tell you if it was any better, but I'm so annoyed with Google results that anything's better

On duckduckgo those are only suggestions that shape the results. They aren't "ignored" but also aren't enforced. You can search for things in quotes that don't ever show up and put a minus sign on things that do show up.

It fucking infuriates me, but it is still better than Google.
