A trick to get better results (I.e. without suggestions etc) is to add “before:2026” TP your search string. This filters out a lot of the garbage, and leaves you with search results alone. I somehow feel the need to do it most times now, if I’m searching for something very specific.

Why 2026? Isn’t everything on YouTube made before 2026

That’s the point. You get all the videos, but with a lot less crud.

But why does it work?

I’m not gonna question it, and just be happy it works for now 😄

I’m guessing it just widens the search parameters outside of what they are pushing with the algorithm, so you’re actually searching everything instead it filtering to cater to newer content and “hot” channels.
