I find that more and more often a search like "keyword1 keyword2 keyword3" will give results that only match 2/3 keywords in the first N results. I feel that I'm frequently having to think "How can I phrase this search to get Google to do what I want?", which seems like a problem they solved (mostly) fairly early on.

It's especially annoying when you search "keyword1 keyword2" then "keyword1 keyword2 keyword3" and get the same results, just with a "Missing terms: keyword3" note below each (and more often than not, an alternative search will find what I'm looking for, so it's not just a case of there being nothing to match all three).

Edit: missed "note".
