I tried the opening example

>Take an open source project such as yt-dlp and try to find it from a very generic term like "youtube downloader". You won't be able to find it because of all of the content farms that try to rank at the top for that term.

and the third result on google.co.uk for "youtube downloader" is "yt-dlp without a doubt the best way to download youtube videos"

I guess search is kind of tricky.



Wonder how much of that is related to location-specific results?

when I lived in Singapore several years ago, local Google results would often be wildly different 'normal' google.com results
