Hi friends! I'm looking for examples of "search" that are:
- friendly and approachable.
- feel like they’re supporting you in finding what you want.
- are usable by people who haven’t slept properly in months.

I’d love examples that cover off the actual search bar/interface before a search has been run, any nice, friendly autosuggestion styles, and helpful results pages with no overwhelm.

Has anyone visited any random websites that stayed in your mind bc it felt so easy to search? Thank you!
