I don't think I've ever added the ability to filter via the text field on any search system I've built. Normally there's checkboxes and categories though

I wonder how many people even know that the hyphen works on google.

Not even the Google search team. You can no longer negate search terms in Google or Bing or DuckDuckGo. Any suggestions for a better search engine?

Do what now!?! I can’t use standard search operators on google anymore?

I've been using Kagi for 2 months and swear by it. It might feel silly paying for a search engine, but I'm now the customer instead of the product, and I can customize my searches the way I want.
