Built this to add a persistent toggle for filtering Google results to pre-2023. Yes, you can use date parameters manually, but having a one-click toggle has proven surprisingly useful for technical research.
Implementation details:
- Modifies search URL parameters for date filtering
- No analytics/tracking
- Lightweight, just handles date toggling
- No background processes
Been using it for my own development work. Posted on r/programming where other developers found it useful for filtering out AI-generated technical documentation and finding original solutions.
Happy to answer any technical questions about the implementation.
