Google image search getting more and more useless?

I've tried with different browsers and images and disabling ad-blocker with no luck. I've also tried to put in an image taken directly from imagefap's face search like this but nothing to do! I don't know if it has momentary issues or has just closed. Can you run it?

Looks like Mindy has been shut off completely on their site. Even the older images are no longer doing related search.

iFap Mindy seems to be back but - as mentioned earlier - the image upload on the deepmindy site itself still seems to be out to lunch. And google is still useless in this dept.

A pretty good working reverse image search engine is Yandex.com
No problems finding NSFW images there, especially for Modern Models.

I just discovered Yandex a couple weeks ago, and I can totally vouch for it. 90's star Tammi Ann is the main focus of my collection, and she has only a handful of sets. With Yandex, I increased my collection of a Silwa set from 34 pictures to 94, and discovered the existence of an alternate version of a set that's already 119 images. I've had good luck there with other models, too. I'm always on the lookout for tricks for deep-searching for specific content, and I'm glad to know this thread is here.

(I have found that after a few searches, Yandex sends me into a rabbit hole of captcha after captcha after captcha, but if I access it through a site called smallseotools dot com instead of directly, that cuts that down quite a bit.)

You can also avoid the Yandex/Captcha merry go round by using a VPN. There was an excellent metasearcher called Imageraider but it went tits up a while back. I think it aggregated the results from multiple reverse image engines (yandex, google, tineye, etc) In its early days it was quite zippy and useful. There are some commercial services that do this too but they usually charge a fairly hefty yearly fee.

PS It seems zeddcontra's site performs the same function as Imageraider did albeit a little less elegantly as it spawns a different result page for each engine whereas IR would aggregate the results on one page.

I'm using a VPN and get sometimes a captcha for Yandex and I also get most times a re-captcha for google.
Searching without VPN, I get no captcha from google.
And the smallseotools send me to a re-captcha too.

I'm using Who stole my pictures? a firefox addon with a similar functionality. Searching with right click at the image using different search engines simultaneously, including yandex, google, tineye and bing. You can choose which one you want to use. There are a few more available (vk.com, baidu etc.).
The various engines opens each one in an extra tab, but that isn't a problem at all, at least to me.

Every time I try yandex via a VPN it defaults to Russian, no matter that I request .com

Using Opera VPN, I almost never get a re-captcha. Albeit a little slower than a "true" VPN, it works very well. Yes, these browser add ons that you mentioned are good too. I just wish something like IR would come back in web form. The SEOT site is good but clunkier in its implementation.

PS 40+ is right about the language shift. It seems to be unavoidable.

I've also given up on g00gle image search because of its blatant hypocrisy and uselessness

Like other members, I've been using Yandex and am quite satisfied with it

I also use a VPN and only get the captcha request occasionnally

About the language, you can choose English in the upper right hand corner (next to log in)

I think smart people will be downloading the content off the best addresses in yandex
and not just bookmarking them for future searches.

- anyone remembering giffer .com will know how silly bookmarking for future downloading was when its adult arm was removed over night

- you know nothing escapes notice for ever


Google already and voluntarily demotes pirate sites in search results based on the number of DMCA notices it receives against them
