I am surprised it took you so long to pop. I would say the situation has bothered me for the past 5 years, with it noticeably getting worse. When searching a specific topic, the number of unrelated results that are show, is my greatest annoyance. It is like the “force” is trying to push me off my path.
Now, on my phone I found an app, “Google Go” as opposed to the “Google” search app, that appears to strip out some of the mega-money sites and get to articles related to the question.
Sadly, I have not found anything similar for desktop use without using an Android simulator. I could use DuckDuckGo search site, but I find it not much better than Google in results.
We need to live with how it is and be smart when we are searching.
