Medium Needs Better Image Search, STAT!
It is unfortunate that the search engine is so rudimentary that it's impossible to use operators like AND or to group similar concepts into a single search.
This isn’t always obvious, but here’s an example (that I pull up because someone questioned whether there was some careless racism going on, and now, I’m not sure — I honestly thought it was just the lack of operators, at first, but now I wonder).
“bad hair cuts” yields:
But notice this:
A search for “hair cuts” or “haircuts” yields similar results, but a search for just “hair” (which I originally theorized would look like the FIRST result), looks like this:
What if I search for GOOD hair cuts/haircuts?
How about just…good hair?
Maybe racist and misogynistic. Although I doubt this is intentional, and I’m sure that digging through the pile (30K+ results) would yield a diverse selection, it just seems odd that these are the first results for these particular searches, doesn’t it?
