Remember to click to the second page of search results
Google and other discovery tools, like, say GitHub's internal search, try really hard to give you the thing you are looking for, and they are usually pretty good about it. But pretty good is where that ends. These engines rely on the same faulty metrics we try to remind people are faulty. GitHub stars are a very very very loose indicator of where to put your attention, and no metrics, however sophisticated, can give you the whole picture. Sometimes you just have to dig deeper.
