Google once stated that their primary goal was to get you off of Google property as quickly as possible- IE deliver your search result and get you where you want to go. That was the exact opposite of every other major website at the time (search engines, 'portals', etc) which wanted to keep you in.
It's what made Google great. They were laser focused on the best search experience.
Now their search kinda sucks, it's all AI and fuzzy logic and whatnot and even with quotes and Verbatim it STILL doesn't just search for what I typed in not what you thought I wanted

I think the problem goes farther back than that. That might be when it got worse, but the place where Google search started to lose its way (IMHO) was when they removed + as an operator so it wouldn't screw up searches for Google+ (their social network at the time). That was the first time they truly put something else ahead of search.
It was also before 2019 that Google search stopped doing what you told it- trying to infer what it thought you meant rather than what you typed in. Verbatim mode makes that better but it's still not perfect.
I don't think anyone's made a better search though. And to be honest I don't think it's possible anymore without MEGA resources.
