Modest SEO's opinion

As for me, this is partly true. But Googlemen, as always, hide the whole globality. The webmaster crashes about once every 3 days, this is what I personally notice. Indexing of new or not pumped sites is at the level of fiction. No way can push a normal page into the index. At Google, either serious problems have begun, or he is preparing something new for us, and someone, bothered, that everything went wrong.
