Has (Mobile) Google Image Search Become Worse Over The Years

[+ Gar1eth]

There are so many scammers on Adam4Adam. Guys who list they are into relationships, but just send smiley faces to your profile. And that's when I've said I don't reply to smileys in mine. 
 

But I almost never find a match using Google search anymore when I'm sure these guys are fake. 
 

So my question remains-

I haven't noticed any problems with the img search, I think it has gotten better. Adam4Adam is old school though. Props to you for venturing those good ol timey lands

I remember first seeing it being used by an escort I had hired for a weekend (Ray Stone if anyone is interested ca. 2005). I was pretty deeply closeted when not hiring at the time-partly because I was still having trouble being gay (I still struggle, but I'm more accepting than I ever thought I'd be), and there were professional reasons too concerning my career. 
 

But I envied Ray-because he was (and still is in case he's reading) drop dead handsome.  Even if I had been  sanguine about being gay, I thought I was too unattractive to catch anyone's eye on a site like that. 
 

Go figure -it's now 18 years later. I'm not one of those who has aged well. And I have a full face picture on it. A FB post from 2009 just popped up. I was a lot more adorable than I had realized-not exactly handsome but I did have a certain Je ne sais quo(in my own eyes at least) . Wish I had capitalized on it a bit more.

In summary may I say that getting old ain't for chickens. 😝😝

I seldom use Google's Image Search because it's been so long since it was useful.  I remember when it was new, it was really bad.  A photo of a man with an erection would get matched with any items that contained hard, tubular parts like brooms or mops.  Then it seemed really good for a while.  I don't know if it's just that sites are now programmed to limit Google's abilities to match the photos they host or if there's something else going on, but I almost never find a match any more.

I just noticed that if you are using Chrome, it now indicates that you can search using Google Lens, so maybe that's the new product.  Interestingly Lens did work when searching an image from a news article on msn.com; it found not only the same image but also similar images (same group of people, but different photos).  It did not work when searching an image from Rent.men; I got no search results.

I'm getting mostly "No Matching Images" with Google Lens, at least the version that kicks in when I right-click an image.
