Nifty trick! Is there a limit to the number of site: filters?

Look for an extension that highlights the good results. I find that more valuable than filtering the bad results.

I just tried, DDG seems to be a bit unreliable, especially when youtube is involved:

As for Google, the limit to a query is 32 words, apparently: https://imgur.com/a/XW1Qa

... however, it also supports inurl:<query>, so you can easily filter out sites with manu subdomains (say, pinterest.com, pinterest.co.uk, etcetera), just by using -inurl:pinterest
