How Pinterest utterly ruined photo search on the internet

• googleimagesrestored

  12 360 0.0 JavaScript

  Discontinued This extension attempts to make Google Images look and feel like it did before they changed everything on August 6th, 2019.

if you use ublock origin, you can permanently remove pinterest results in google images with the following filter:

www.google.com##.isv-r:has-text(/pinterest.com/)

shameless plug: i've been maintaining a browser extension for a couple of years called 'google images restored' [0] which reverts google images to how it was before 2019. that extension, mixed with the ublock origin filter removing unwanted domains (pinterest, alamy, 123rf, etc), makes google images enjoyable again for me.

  Hacker News Search

  

Please don't pounce on someone like this—it's first of all against the site guidelines:

"Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine." (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html)

- and it disincentivizes people from showing up to discuss what they actually know about (i.e. their work), which is a strictly bad tradeoff for HN. You can make all your substantive points without haranguing anyone; please do that instead.

  Blocks specific sites from appearing in Google search results

I recommend the uBlacklist browser extension <https://iorate.github.io/ublacklist/> and simply block pinterest as well as all the stock image sites.
