Turns out that making Google search unusable was an intentional strategy by the company. (lemmygrad.ml)

Google has also become extremely censored, like to an absurd degree. Search anything on a remotely political current topic and all you will get is pure propaganda from western media, governments and think tanks. It is virtually impossible to find anything else. They just won't show it to you. You have to use Yandex.

That's if you get anything at all. A lot of my searches return no results on Google or derivatives, so I have to use Bing, Yandex, or others instead.

They do return a large number of results on all of those.
