I think it is possible to make way, way better search engine because Google Search is no longer as good as it used to, at least for me.

I can no longer find anything remotely good quality, I discover new and quality stuff from social media like Twitter and HN.

The search results seem to be too general and too mainstream. Nothing new to discover, just a shortcut to the few websites like Reddit, StackOverflow for more techie thing and Wikipedia and the few mainstream news websites for the rest.

I usually end up to search HN, Reddit or StackOverflow directly as the resulting quality is better as I can get easily specific. Getting specific is harder on Google because it just omits or misinterprets my search query keywords quite often.
