Old inaccurate results

RoxyRoxyRoxy

Hey, I just tried it and the results seem fine imo. Are you still seeing it?

InternetChunk

Yes it’s still happening, now that more articles were published it filled some gaps but it didn’t change. Site didn’t let me upload a film so I took screenshots.

For context the first screenshot features top 3 results. The language mixed in is Polish.

InternetChunk Are you searching in the Polish region?

InternetChunk

RoxyRoxyRoxy Yes

What server region are you in (can be found at the bottom of the hamburger menu)?

InternetChunk

RoxyRoxyRoxy I use a VPN (but it connects to the same region), if I turn it off it still connects me to EUROPE-WEST2.

InternetChunk Can replicate now. These are definitely a bit degraded results compared to what I was seeing in the US - interesting sites imo but not related to iPhone 17 🙂

InternetChunk

RoxyRoxyRoxy Why are searches based on connected server region? Is choosing a region in settings (for I presume more region specific searches) the same thing as me being connected to Europe West2? Or are these not connected in any way? And how does international region impact results?

RoxyRoxyRoxy

InternetChunk The server region can change results due to differences in latency between upstreams, and in some cases different providers entirely. The search region is a parameter we pass to the upstreams, not related to the physical location. (And international IIRC we just don't pass that parameter)

RoxyRoxyRoxy I didn’t know if I should have created a separate report but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it discussed somewhere (inaccurate images). I tried searching for a query about a polish cucumber dish (Poland region search results + EUROPE WEST2) and more than half of the images did not concern the subject. One showed avocados but half of all of them showed me America’s got Talent competitions?? And other singers..

InternetChunk Yes, that sounds like something you should make a new post on. Sounds a little like a post I've seen already but please make a new one and I can merge if needed 🙂
