Google used the information from your search to build more of their profile of you, which they DO sell to people. Google records the links people click and uses that data as well. You can rest easy knowing that Google will do anything they can to take their pound of flesh from you.

I said an "AND based" search, meaning based on returning only notes matching every term rather than returning results matching any term. Does that clarify my question?

haha yes, I misread your question, my bad.

Although I suppose I still don’t understand your question. You want to know whether there are any nostr AND based search engines? Not that I know of. You want me to give an example of an AND based search that I’d actually like to run? How about a search I just ran on Google: “LMDB” + “neo4j” + “ETL pipeline”. Of course, nostr is too young and devoid of content to give anything useful for that search, but hopefully one day that won’t be the case.

How about if I want content authored by Alice AND containing some specific keyword.

Yes, I understand that Google records my searches and clicks and every piece of data they can lay their hands on about me, so they can monetize it. An insidious dynamic that I hope we can destroy. But that’s unrelated to the idea that there are two types of content: content that is intended to be part of a conversation and therefore loses its value as it ages and therefore should be displayed in reverse chronological order vs content that is intended to be durable, content that does not automatically lose its value just bc it’s 5 minutes old.
