1) Pinterest.
2) "Missing: word. Must include: word". So Tools->All Results->Verbatim for every single search.
3) It sucks for technical queries.
4) That no matter if I use a new account, lifetime account or no account at all, it never gets to know me. My search results oscillate between generic Stack Overflow answers and ResearchGate (and the like) papers, which most of the time are too complex or not accessible at all.
5) Piling up filters. My queries often include "-amazon -ebay -alibaba -aliexpress", etc.......
