Spotlight progressively getting worse was one of the reasons I switched to Linux.

I think MacOS is great. Many of the features are brilliant. The UI is second to none to this day.

But holy moly, Spotlight has degraded. From searching my files, to searching my files and the internet, to consistently providing me with nothing I am looking for.

When Apple first started selling OSX it's UNIX heritage was a part of the selling point but my vibe is that they only really consider text input a feature for devs. Which thinking of Mac's history is on brand but just leaves you down many a frustrating dead end.
