Just straight up doesn't work.
Won't even block the exact page you blocked from showing up in results, let alone the entire site or domain.
I really wanted fandoms' ad-filled inaccurate wikis removed from my searches

This works well, except for the fact that the block link pops up right when I'm about to click on a link, and gets clicked accidentally instead, and then I have to derail my chain of thought as I try to remember how to unblock a site. I wish it popped up somewhere else, or wasn't clickable right after appearing.
I use it to block Quora, which frequently shows up as the first result, but 99% of the time has only wrong answers. Also, spammy Wikipedia mirrors get blocked.
