Did Google mess it up with the recent core update?

After the recent Google core update, I am noticing that many older pages, mostly published in 2023 and 2024, are now climbing back into the top rankings. For example, when I search for some best tools, articles titled ‘Best Tools in 2024’ and ‘2025’ are frequently appearing in the top 10 results. Has anyone else noticed this? submitted by /u/resurrect002 <a h
