@frostidflake1922 are you referring to this feature with the three vertical dots that allows you to select "view similar active items" on an item shown in search?
If so, I'm currently seeing it in the latest version of the Android app as well as on desktop, but only in some browsers/instances, which may suggest eBay could either be doing A/B testing or a phased rollout and that could explain why you had seen it previously but are not seeing it now.
Currently on desktop I am seeing it in Chrome incognito, but not when logged in and in Firefox when logged in but not incognito.
Interestingly, it looks like eBay is pretty much just doing a text based search for the title of whatever the listing is and it does not appear they are using image recognition tech like they have with the search by image functionality or like they were attempting to use (with not great results) when previously testing adding a "find similar" button overlaid on listing images.
We can see that if you use this "find similar" option in search on an item with a more generic title, you get much more generic results that show the feature is not likely trying to match for visual similarity (or if it is, it's still not returning great results.)
I'll have to play around with it more, but this suggests buyers may be able to easily get pretty much the same results by copying and pasting the title of a listing they are interested in into the search bar themselves - which may be a possible workaround if this is the feature you are talking about and it is no longer showing the vertical dots for you to access it directly.
@mcdougle4248 @wastingtime101 just tagging you in here in case you're interested since you were active in that older thread about "find similar" on item pages.
