i search for error messages all the time on ddg and it usually finds relevant results. it fails when errors are not sufficiently obscure, such as a common python error occurring in many code bases, permissions errors, vaguely-worded errors etc. But there is no way for the internet to guess context in such a situation. spam is not a problem.
if google is so bad stop using it.
and there are websites like https://wiby.me/ that exist to assist people in finding the old-type content.
Sometimes I have resorted to searching blog domains and it isn't bad for the right queries.

Honestly I have a cat paw type nail puller but 9/10 hammer is the answer.
