    Stract seems kind of bad. Results are mostly irrelevant. It seems impossible to get information about any sort of local stores or anything like that. I literally can’t search up a youtube page. Like, the ways in which google actually still functions don’t work on stract at all.

      I never tried for YouTube. I mainly use for technical info, in which it gets me to the results. Google has an advantage for YouTube search since they own both platforma and share meta data. Stract is probably oldschool webcrawling. I did read somewhere that it takes time for it to build up its hit results. Did you try the content filters?
