Piped, an open-source YouTube frontend, has pretty good search results:

Does Piped (or the similar Invidious) provide its own search functionality or merely channel YouTube's?

I suspect it might be supplying specific filters (e.g., "intitle", mentioned elsewhere in this thread) to YouTube's query engine.

I'm not sure exactly, but here is a related line of code:

Thanks.

That looks strongly like a simple pass-through.
